Verdict
BASHFUL has been beaten in handicaps recently but has a much easier opportunity back at this level with Oisin Murphy taking over the reins and looks the one to beat. Moel Arthur may improve fitted the a tongue-tie for this and is preferred to Danita despite stepping up from a mile. The newcomers make little appeal on breeding with Michigan State preferred to Spirit Of Jacob.
