      Verdict

      Several with claims in the opener including Come On Girl, a runner-up in a lower grade here last week. Helvetian went close in a similar contest at the track just four days ago but ALABLAQ placed in a tougher sprint at Wolverhampton last month when behind a subsequent winner and this drop in class can see David Evans’ charge off the mark. Buy Me Back has a chance off her current mark though has done most of her winning over the minimum trip.
