      Verdict

      MADAME AMBASSADOR made a winning handicap debut when successful at Nottingham. Mark Johnston’s filly can confirm running with third-placed Night Arc despite the less favourable terms and can go in again. Tartan Chief is upped in trip for his handicap bow with an earlier second over course and distance giving him the edge over both Attache and Single Minded.
