      Verdict

      Nearly all of these have questions to answer of some description. Cliffside Park did run a subsequent winner to less than two lengths at Southwell but is conceding weight all round. Serenity Now has strong claims on his second at Fakenham last month when Minstrel Royal was favourite but a well-beaten last of three. SPORTY YANKEE is only a four-year-old and appears in this lowly grade for the first time. He hasn’t shown much since winning a Ffos Las maiden a year ago but that was on soft going so he has conditions in his favour.
