      Verdict

      Grand Scheme bids for a hat-trick raised 6lb for last month’s course and distance success while Frontispiece finished runner-up over 1m2f here on his reappearance and beat Parachute when scoring over track and trip last autumn. Blow Your Horn was allowed to make the running when placed at Newmarket last time but ZAIN NIGHTS (NAP) went close over 1m3f here on his handicap debut and he gets the nod with plenty of scope for further progress.
