In depth
Verdict
MONKS MEAD went close over 6f at Windsor last time but returns to his winning trip having scored on the Turf course at Lingfield on his handicap debut. That’s the only winning form on offer though Goldmine Girl finished second of five runners at Pontefract and makes her handicap bow. Mist Of Lir finished closer at Southwell last time while Lucy Lockett drops down in class.
