Verdict

Flying Rock returns to action 5lb higher than when scoring here in December while No Patience disappointed raised the same amount last time for winning over track and trip in January. Ablah has been threatening to get her head in front but has a couple of lengths to find with STOP ON RED (NAP), who scored over track and trip before missing out by only a neck over a mile back here last month. Cursory Exam and Ellabella are others with a bit to find with the selection while blinkers and a tongue-tie are applied to Vazzy on his reappearance.
