      Verdict

      The Eagle's Nest is not certain to appreciate the drop back in distance having won over 1m2f at Newcastle in October. Titan Goddess will find this tougher than the seller she won over course and distance last week so the vote goes to another recent winner in GLENN COCO (NAP). The latter added to an earlier success at Wolverhampton with a convincing victory over track and trip just 10 days ago and may not have stopped improving yet. Colourful Career is one to keep an eye on now handicapping for the first time.
