        Verdict

        A poor race for the grade. Insight won a similar contest at Brighton last time but it’s anyone’s guess what that was worth and she’s far from certain to repeat that effort. The veteran MEGALALA at least knows how to get his head in front, has winning form at Lingfield and is back on a reasonable mark.
