Verdict
ENGLES ROCK beat both Dreamseller and Broctune Red when winning over course and distance last month. He can effectively race off a lower mark with an apprentice’s allowance taken into account and can go in again. Masham Moor failed when bidding for a hat-trick at Southwell while Magical Mile is penalised for winning at Chelmsford and Going Underground and Biplane placed on Tapeta on their latest starts.
