Verdict

EY UP IT’S MAGGIE got her head back in front on soft ground at Ripon and can defy a 2lb rise with Kevin Stott keeping the winning partnership intact. Rodborough’s recent double came on the Tapeta at Southwell but May Blossom scored on soft going at Nottingham earlier. It was fast underfoot when Sound Reason won over track and trip in July while Prospect is back on a winning mark and his yard has won two of the three previous renewals.
