Verdict
Project Black was a disappointing favourite on his reappearance but WASDALE returned to action with a victory over course and distance and there looks more to come from her. Tyke never figured carrying a penalty at Doncaster having won over 6f on his debut and makes his handicap debut while Raven's Up returns to her winning trip after placing at Wolverhampton.
