Verdict
Poyle Charlotte completed a double in July and only went up 3lb but she's been unable to cope in her two subsequent starts. Khazix looked a certain future winner after just caught over a mile at Windsor but hasn't made the expected progress. Amplification won a Doncaster maiden on good to soft last October and hasn't had those conditions since but this can go to LAMB CHOP, who produced a much improved performance when just failing to make most over this trip at Chepstow. She had earlier been a long way behind Ragstone View at Newbury and the latter could provide the main threat.
