Verdict

The Gary Moore pair are both returning from a break having improved over hurdles, so need a market check, and BEAT THE JUDGE in particular could be interesting from his mark given his exploits at the winter game. He gets the vote in the absence of market clues, with Plait perhaps the one to give him most to do down in grade and back on soft ground for the first time since making a winning debut. De Vegas Kid would be a major player on faster ground, and it's possible he will still have a big role to play despite the recent downpours.
