Verdict
A 10lb hike in the weights and a rise in class at Southwell brought Pocket The Packet’s winning run to an end. He’ll do better back in this grade while Iato's Angel also drops down in class for her all-weather debut. But SILVERLODE proved well suited to today’s trip when beaten less than a length here last week and can go one better given he’s due to be raised 5lb for that better effort. Deepdale makes her handicap debut while Vampire Slayer has been gelded and debuts for a new yard.
