Verdict

Noble Prospector finally came good by the narrowest of margins at Wolverhampton but will have to carry 3lb more here, though Megan Nicholls’ claim takes care of that. TOROCHICA made all at Newmarket in July and is well berthed to adopt similar tactics around this sharp track. Her dam won races over this much longer trip and John Best’s filly remains unexposed. Trinity Lake is also making his handicap debut upped in trip but Conundrum has looked in the handicapper’s grip recently. Madeeh has proved consistent but this track will ask questions of his inexperienced pilot.
