      Verdict

      DESPOT was well backed on his reappearance and didn't disappoint when landing his handicap debut by six lengths over track and trip - he can shrug off a penalty and go in again. Si Senor also won when handicapping for the first time at this track but he was less impressive when beating Baltic Fire a neck over a longer trip. New Row won his maiden here and drops in class for his return to action while Fiftyshadesfreed has won a couple of lesser contests at the course. Half Way looks another likely improver but both Glebe Spirit and Relation Alexander finished a long way behind the selection last time.
