Verdict
Winklevi was allowed to make all in an apprentices’ race over track and trip last week and escapes a penalty. Estrela Star won over a shorter trip here last month while Bascinet also step up in distance on the back of last week’s victory here. But GOT BRIGHT posted easily his best effort so far on his first outing after wind surgery when beaten less than a length at Southwell. He looks up to winning off his current mark and gets the nod.
