Verdict

Soyounique escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race over 7f here but has a bit to prove over this far. Bahia Star placed at Lingfield on her all-weather debut and should figure again but ELEVEN ELEVEN has been competing over longer trips in handicaps since scoring at Newcastle in October and he gets another chance dropping back down in class. Finery has winning form over a mile and is preferred to Magical Mile of the remainder.
