        Verdict

        Nietzsche will be back jumping in the near future but is potentially well treated on the pick of his Flat form here. However, LICIT had to overcome several obstacles before getting her head back in front on heavy going here 11 days ago. She’s only gone up 3lb and Sean Kirrane can claim that back. Stamina could be an issue for Carlisle winner Glittering Choice but Ice House has untapped potential making her handicap debut being a half-sister to five winners including the useful Queen Of Ice.
