      Verdict

      STOCKING is penalised for winning at Wolverhampton but she scored by over two lengths on the bridle and has scope for further progress. Lydiate Lady finished behind the selection on the all-weather but has subsequently run well at Nottingham while handicap debutante Farrah's Choice is unexposed, though never threatened in maiden company despite a couple of placed efforts. Belle Nellie could only manage fourth in a maiden handicap at Redcar a fortnight ago but You're Cool finished closer last time and continues to slip down the weights.
