Verdict

Mrs Meader was well beaten over today’s trip in between a couple of victories over 1m2f while Pride Of Hawridge scored over the same distance and can figure if lasting home. Perfect Myth went close at Leicester in July and has undergone wind surgery since while NIETZSCHE was upped in class last time having won at Catterick before that. He gets another chance back at this level with his jockey claiming 5lb. Golden Dove and Alkhattaaf are worth a second glance partnered by leading amateurs.
