    Verdict

    Essgee Nics is the only course and distance winner in the line-up having followed a victory here with a narrow defeat from 5lb higher on a return visit. He can go well again while Elsie Violet looked suited by dropping down to a mile at Yarmouth and arrives with a 5lb penalty. Red Gunner has only won on the all-weather but wasn't beaten far over the track and trip last month while Irish import Goodwood Showman made a promising start for new connections here last week and wouldn't need much more to get into the frame. LYRICAL BALLAD, who is 0-13, was well supported on the same card and came within a short-head of losing her maiden tag so Neil Mulholland's filly is taken to gain compensation.
