Verdict
Layline finally returned to winning ways when successful over C&D a fortnight ago under a fine ride from Jamie Spencer. The winning partnership remains intact and he can confirm superiority with Franco Is My Name, Baylini, Resentful Angel and Hidden Glory. Mister New York showed signs of a return to form last time and Suits Me is always capable of making the frame, but a chance is taken on the fitness of SILVER GREY. She returns from a lay-off after a string of credible efforts in Group company around the globe last year and will find life easier up against handicappers today.
