In depth
Verdict
MAY NIGHT gave the impression this extra distance would suit when scoring over 7f here on his handicap debut with Astapor well beaten. He may well defy a penalty and go in again. Jazzi'o placed again at Windsor on her handicap bow but Gallardise ran as though something was amiss at Salisbury having earlier won a novices race at Lingfield. Tricolore and Baby Sham are worth a second glance now handicapping for the first time.
