Verdict

Robasta won over a longer trip at Kempton having slipped down the weights while Majeski Man has been threatening a return to winning ways on Turf. Mythical Molly finished a close-up third at Redcar while Politics finally showed some improvement for a tumble down the handicap with a better effort at Doncaster. VERREAUX EAGLE (NAP) struggled in soft going over 7f last time but Ed Dunlop’s filly is worth another chance in this having been beaten only a nose over today’s trip in a more competitive sprint at Newmarket before that.
