Verdict
Ripon winner Champagne City has subsequently been placed in Listed company but has been raised 9lb for his troubles. Shawaahid struggled in a valuable nursery at York last time but still finished ahead of Reputation while Another Touch was well beaten in this grade last week and Robinnielly steps up in class after scoring at Musselburgh. TAKING LIBERTYS has failed to figure in Group 3 company the last twice but won his first couple of starts, including a Class 2 conditions race at Pontefract - Kevin Ryan's colt gets another chance at this level.
