Verdict

Mickael Barzalona has travelled up for just one ride for retainers Godolphin and Wickhambrook has improved with every run. The drop back to 5f may well suit but this looks quite competitive with Dutch Breeze certainly interesting after only going down by a half-a-length on debut at Redcar and City Zen also only finding one to good on her introduction over track and trip last month. NORTHERN WATER gets the nod, however, as his Pontefract conqueror Back Lane finished second in better company at Musselburgh next time. The Grumpy Gnome has shown some promise but may do better in handicaps.
