Verdict
THEGREYVTRAIN went close in classified company recently having earlier finished runner-up in a similar contest over track and trip. She beat Lorna Cole and Captain Ryan last time and most of the remainder before that and can confirm superiority. Moveonup has subsequently found one too good at Chelmsford but the likes of One Day, Mercers and Campachoochoo will do well to reverse running with the selection.
