Verdict
Meep Meep Mag, a winning pointer, has run well in both starts to date under Rules and had 10 lengths to spare over INNISFREE SPIRIT when second at Wetherby with Quik Shift well beaten. But Nicky Richards’ mare needed the experience that day and wasn’t given a hard time so it would be no surprise to see her turn the tables. Leeswood Lily has also won between the flags but is having a first run under Rules.
