Verdict

Dramatista beat BROCTUNE RED by a only a neck over track and trip last month and the latter went on to land an apprentices’ race back here under today’s rider. He escapes a penalty as a consequence and should go close again. Calonne and Confrontational are closely matched on running over 7f here last time and the latter won over course and distance back in November while Castle Quarter placed at Southwell recently but Curfewed remains unpredictable.
