      Verdict

      Both Hiromichi and Rogue Storm were beaten in handicaps before landing maiden races at Ffos Las and Yarmouth respectively. Sapphire's Moon won at Brighton before beaten carrying at penalty at the same track while STREET POET won over course and distance earlier this month. A runner-up over a mile here subsequently, the latter gets the vote back over his winning trip.
