Verdict
DESKTOP continues to improve and won over today’s trip at Wetherby last time, beating Ullswater, Thankyou Very Much and Frosty The Snowman in the process. The latter was subsequently placed behind today’s rival and Redcar runner-up District Attorney and Chris Fairhurst’s charge can also figure. Lady Makfi opened her account when scoring at a big price at Wolverhampton and should stay this longer trip while Noble Reach posted a better effort at Redcar last time and Duke Of Diamonds has finished closer of late without threatening.
