Verdict

DIAMOND GEEZER is back in Scotland for the first time since his Perth win and is taken to resume his progression for Olly Murphy and Sean Bowen. Unexposed course winner Saracen Beau is interesting on his first outing back with Nicky Richards. Fostered Phil, Follow Charlie and Coconut Splash are quite closely matched on recent 3m course form here and are others who could have a say.

Diamond Geezer (Ire) silk

Runner-up in first 2 handicaps and went one better at Perth (2½m, heavy) in October. Hasn't been in quite the same form when reaching the frame on both starts since but still much respected here for leading trainer/jockey combination.
