In depth
Verdict
A weak handicap with most making their handicap debuts and a token vote going the way of ARLECCHINO’S STAR on her latest fourth in maiden company at Lingfield. Looe P Looe and Artistic Girl are others likely to improve now handicapping and the latter may well attempt to make the running while Moondial is preferred to Mintana of those who have already competed in nurseries.
