Verdict
Kissininthebackrow steps up in distance after winning a novices' race over a mile here but STATE LEGEND made a winning debut in handicaps when successful at Wolverhampton. He can go in again raised only 2lb for beating Achnamara, who went on to score at the same track when easily beating Mashkuur. The latter finished in front of Already Gone over course and distance earlier while Graffiti make his handicap debut on his first outing since October.
