Verdict

WELL DONE won a maiden at Wolverhampton when dropped back to the minimum trip and may prove good enough. Spiritous gets first-time headgear having returned a losing favourite in handicaps the last twice now but Looting bids for hat-trick of nursery wins off a 6lb higher mark. Battaash could figure dropped in class and Cuppacoffee has won a couple of novice events including over 5f at Carlisle back in July. Kyllang Rock landed a novices' race at Catterick while Naafer finished well ahead of Nautical Haven in this grade at York without threatening the winner.
