      Verdict

      Reflation has been placed in four of his nine starts and found 5f too sharp last time at Salisbury. Richard Hannon has reached for the blinkers in an attempt to manufacture some improvement but he looks to be too close in the weights to PENNY DREADFUL, who skated up in a maiden at Carlisle last time despite a tardy start. The latter has been raised 5lb but that shouldn't prevent a follow-up in a race that looks short of quality. Brighton second Blackadder is preferred to stablemate Deftera Lad and the Gary Moore pair Lucky Leyf and El Fenix of the others.
