Verdict

Mark Johnston's three-year-olds are always worth a second look here and Ghost Train suggested he was back on a fair mark with a third at Beverley last month. A visor sparked Serene Oasis into life at Lingfield on Saturday but she now has a 6lb penalty to carry while Subtle Knife's form on Turf so far has left much to be desired. Mr Fickle and Esprit Danseur should both appreciate the step back up in distance after failing over 6f, however, while Sir Dylan and King's Ciel may be capable of better in first-time headgear. But MARAH MUSIC seems best at 7f and is worth another chance in this grade after a close-up second at Warwick when up against a well-treated rival.
