    Verdict

    BLUE DE VEGA was back to something like his best when runner-up in a conditions race at Wolverhampton last month. He gets another chance back in handicap company and a similar effort could see Bob Cowell’s charge reverse earlier running at Lingfield with several of these. That includes the runner-up Lihou, who finished ahead of both Royal Birth and Han Solo Berger, while Top Breeze gets a change of headgear dropping back down to the minimum trip and is not out of this either.
