      Verdict

      Mr Buttons was brought with a powerful late burst to catch Arthur's Spirit over the course and distance on the first day of the month and Connor Murtagh's claim virtually wipes out his penalty. DANCING ON A DREAM was beaten 2l by that runner-up at Kempton where she took an age to warm up but finished strongly. There's nothing between her and Richard Fahey's charge on collateral form but Mark Johnston's filly looks to have more scope. Cococabala was a further 3l behind in that latter event and looks held while Sandy Heartbeat hasn't shown enough to merit consideration but the newcomer Lady Katy's dam has produced three winning sprinters though she's by Sir Percy so may need more time.
