        Verdict

        SECRET CONTACT found only one too good upped in trip at Lingfield for her handicap debut and gives the impression this extra furlong will suit. Uncle Matthew finished closer at Wolverhampton without threatening while Oisin Murphy partners the returning Climate Precedent as the latter makes his handicap debut along with Artisan Dancer. Foinix scored at Chelmsford last month and looks best of the rest.
