        Verdict

        HORSFORTH finished just ahead of Entertaining Ben with Windforpower and Socialites Red further behind when going close over track and trip once again. A course and distance winner last year, she’s preferred to recent Wolverhampton maiden winner Poetic Queen, who is dropping back down in class today. Indian Pursuit won in this grade here last month and is only upped 4lb while Groundworker scored over course and distance in November, though remains 5lb higher.
