        Verdict

        LAIRIG GHRU showed promise at Pontefract when finishing third on his debut. Normal progress should see him in the mix at the finish. Pretty Lady took a step backwards at Wolverhampton having finished closer at Catterick earlier and it remains to be seen if Momentum can improve on a debut fifth here last month. Jockey bookings suggest Innings, a brother to a winner and a half-brother to four others, is preferred to Dutch Monument of Richard Fahey’s newcomers with Dream Academy, Yes Always and Perfect Focus others worth a second glance.
