Verdict
ANOTHER ROMANCE trounced the opposition at Wolverhampton in first-time headgear having undergone wind surgery since last in action. She beat a subsequent winner by over eight lengths and should have no problem defying a penalty. Newmarket fourth The Green Man looks best of the rest with experience ahead of Waltzing Intime and Apache Grey, though the newcomer Tarrabb is also worthy of a second glance.
