      Verdict

      There was little between runner-up Alshaqee and Iconic Figure when they filled the places at Wolverhampton last week while Belle Mare Plage posted her best effort to date when only beaten a length at Lingfield and has the beating of the frustrating Shine Likeadiamond on that form. Krystallite can also be given a chance on her placed efforts but DISMANTLE is fitted with blinkers for the first time here and may come out best back in maiden company after a close-up fifth in a handicap at Windsor.
