Verdict
Charlie Fellowes has been taking his time with Classical Rose and she should do better now tackling handicaps. David Brown's string has signs of a revival and Newholm is usually thereabouts while Escrick has her sights lowered. SIGNORET won a maiden auction at Thirsk in May and was poorly drawn on a return visit to that track. She's already finished runner-up over this course and distance and deserves another chance. Lazy Days In Loule has already won here so can't be ignored and is preferred to recent Doncaster runner-up Wiggle of the others.
