Verdict
BEELZEBUB won in novice company at Chelmsford in December and further progress is expected now handicapping. Saracen Head has gone close here and also makes his handicap debut while Northern Spirit won over track and trip before beaten off today’s higher mark. Lupset Flossy Pop’s earlier course win came over the minimum trip while Katar came up short back in maiden company last time and a visor is applied.
