Verdict

Balletomane is upped in class off a higher mark having won over a mile here on his reappearance. Tight Lines also faces a stiffer task having gone close at Nottingham on her handicap debut and preference is for INSURGENCE. The latter just missed out on a treble when caught close home over today’s trip at Lingfield and James Fanshawe’s charge should be in the mix once again. Best Blue may finish closer in this lower grade while though Image and Rogue failed to figure in the same race at Newmarket last time both will appreciate this return to 7f.
