Verdict

Restitution bids to defy a penalty having switched yards since scoring at Yarmouth back in April. But BEHOLDING will likely start a short price to shrug off her penalty as the Gosden filly won as she liked at Lingfield with the rest nowhere and is clearly the one to beat. King Capella went close to making a winning debut at Haydock and should be in the mix but Scherbobalob was beaten a long way when runner-up at Ffos Las. Cu Chulainn cost a whopping 425,000gns as a full-brother to a Group 3 winner in Hong Kong and is a newcomer to note.
