Verdict

Burauq finished in front of Krazy Paving when beaten only a head at Kempton recently while Warba finished closer at the latter track last time with both Mistry and Lady Morel behind. Evanescent was runner-up over 7f here earlier in the week and gets help from the saddle today with an apprentice’s allowance in his favour while De Vegas Kid ended last year with a second over a mile at Brighton. But DROP KICK MURPHI (NAP) finally showed glimpses of a return to form when third at Chelmsford having plummeted down the weights last year
