      Verdict

      A dual winner in testing ground in France, Geoffrey's Girl debuts for new connections. Jufn posted a better effort in soft ground at Leicester last time while Frantical was placed at Nottingham on his first start over 1m2f and can race off the same mark. But DISTANT HIGH ran well over track and trip in between a couple of modest efforts in softer going and Richard Price’s charge may come out best on this occasion.
