Verdict

Rated 77, Signed Sealed steps up in distance and has leading claims if taking to this surface but STARVING FAITHFUL may prove better value. The latter was beaten only a length over track and trip last month when ahead of a subsequent winner and further progress is expected from Ralph Beckett's filly. Kay Sera never looked like catching the winner when second over course and distance but finished ahead of Brave Richard while Nineteenth Hole was a well beaten third at Wolverhampton last time. Rosette was fourth in a bumper at Ayr in October and makes her debut in this code.
