Verdict
Harry Bannister could afford to ease down GAZETTE BOURGEOISE at Stratford and still win easily. She can confirm running with the second So Said I despite the penalty and go in again. Doin'whatshelikes has yet to figure and was still tailed off when third on her hurdling bow at Plumpton and bumper winner Swincombe Fleat is preferred hurdling for the first time as she’s a full-sister to the decent hurdler Master Debonair.
