    Verdict

    With William Haggas utilising Cieren Fallon’s claim, the unexposed LISTEN TO THE WIND is effectively racing off the same mark as when successful on her handicap debut at Yarmouth and is difficult to oppose. Reggae Runner is thoroughly exposed but didn’t give his true running at Redcar 12 days ago. The handicapper may have reeled in Shanghai Grace but Hold Still was second at Sandown last month and Entertaining might enjoy dropping back to a mile, though looks vulnerable in this grade.
