Verdict

WINTERWATCH improves with every start and further progress is expected now handicapping as he won a maiden in good style at Catterick and should have the measure of these. Folly Beach is also unexposed having gone close at Leicester while Epic Pass is creeping closer and found only one too good on the Turf here. Eton Blue steps up in trip after placing at Brighton and may prove best of the rest.
