Verdict
Dell' Arca is getting a bit long in the tooth and might need more give in the ground nowadays. The latter comment probably also applies to Chloe's Court and she was a long way behind Lanspark at Plumpton before winning at Wincanton last month. Presenting Yeats won here last summer and later at Hereford and Warwick but hasn’t raced since November. MORFEE relished the step up in trip to beat the in-form Legal Rights at Plumpton and can defy a paltry 3lb rise.
