      Verdict

      Symbolic won his maiden here but has disappointed since and gets first-time headgear as he drops down a grade and takes on older horses. STARBOARD is another down in class having failed to figure up against much higher rated opposition in a Class 2 at York. David Simcock’s charge should find this easier and gets the nod. The remainder are all upped in class including recent Catterick winner Just Be Lucky and Redcar runner-up Nouvelli Dancer while Misty Lord should be sharper for a recent comeback run at Newmarket.
