Verdict
Totnes failed to land the odds at Wolverhampton on her handicap debut and is upped in distance. Climate Precedent went close at the latter track and is preferred to Butterfly Effect while Mysterious Maestro should be noted on his reappearance having been gelded and goes handicapping for the first time along with PHENOMENON. The latter went close over track and trip before beaten in a decent maiden at Southwell on his comeback and is fitted with cheekpieces for this with Billy Loughnane taking 3lb off his back.
