Verdict

CAPE VICTORY steps up to mile and recoup losses incurred when failing to land the dds on his return to action at Southwell. Redcar runner-up Simon's Smile is looking a little exposed and Spirit Of Lund turned in a shocker upped in trip at Haydock after an earlier fifth over 7f here. The remaining trio all have some improving to do if they are to play a part.
