Verdict

Quick Flight won comfortably over 5f at Catterick and was then far from disgraced in a minor event over the same trip last time. The daughter of Polar Falcon shaped as though the extra distance will suit on the latter occasion and shhould give another bold display. The others to have raced look to have something to find so it would be no surprise if the well bred newcomer Silver Rapere proved the main danger.
