      Verdict

      Hidden Link finished a well beaten second when stepped up to 1m3f last time but beat a subsequent winner over a shorter trip at Wolverhampton before that. Beau Select keeps threatening to score without actually doing so and Scepticism has yet to win but may have improved since he last raced in October and makes his all-weather debut in this. BYRONESS won her maiden over 7f here and was beaten less than a length in a handicap over a mile at Lingfield last time. Heather Main's filly can race off the same mark today and gets the nod.
