        Verdict

        An interesting contest with a number of unexposed types who are capable of better than they've shown to date. Screaming Eagle appreciated the first-time blinkers and a step up in trip when scoring a shade comfortably at Warwick on her return. The extra quarter of a mile should suit this daughter of Sadler's Wells and a subsequent 4lb rise may not prevent the follow up. Full House won easily on his second start last term and starts the new campaign on a potentially lenient mark while the Mark Johnston pair of Hearthstead Pride and Thunder Canyon are winners on the all-weather and both are capable of further progress along with the in-form Timing from the Tim Easterby stable.
