Verdict

PAINLESS POTTER was beaten only a length when fourth at Lingfield on his reappearance. Alan King’s charge should go close with that run under his belt and is preferred to Sun Festival. The latter placed in both outings at Chepstow last summer and has been gelded since while Moment Critique steps back up in distance on her return to action. El Picaro finished just in front of Helluvaboy over track and trip last month though neither threatened and Serenhill finished closer here last time.
