      Verdict

      Most of these make their handicap debuts and three won their latest outings. Charged Up landed a maiden at Musselburgh but EMINNY won a novices' race at Beverley with plenty left in the tank and gets the vote to continue winning ways. Ten Card Brag scored on the Polytrack and is upped in trip along with Art Historian and Forever A Diamond while Watcha Matey is preferred to Up The Jazz on a recent third at Salisbury.
