      Verdict

      BILL NEIGH struggled in Listed company at Ascot last time but made a winning debut over course and distance and is taken to defy a penalty. Ventura Flame was also outclassed at Ascot when well beaten in the Queen Mary but ran well for second at Carlisle on her earlier introduction and looks the main danger to the selection. Bubbly Splash and Time Force are likely improvers and both are preferred to Arriba Arriba while Lady Celia is a sister to a couple of winners and a half-sister to others and is a newcomer to note for Richard Fahey’s yard.
