In depth

Verdict

Some interesting sorts clash in a decent nursery. Bill Neigh found the upward curve into Listed grade last time too steep and will appreciate the drop in class, whilst EXCLUSIVELY ran into Never In Paris on her latest start, form which reads well as the Burke filly finished a decent eighth of 24 in the Super Sprint at Newbury on Saturday, beaten only 4l. The Watson inmate can revert to winning ways now on her first sortie into handicap company. Dazzling Des is also sure to appreciate returning to this level after a Listed level defeat latest, with Tom Tulliver and the unexposed Il Maestro not ruled out with the latter one to note in the market.
