        Verdict

        Comedian Leader failed to land the odds over a longer trip at Chelmsford earlier in the week having earlier scored over track and trip and SEAGROVE FOX is preferred. The latter finished fourth over today’s trip at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut but drops down a grade for this and has plenty of scope for further progress. The latter comment also applies to the likes of Mr Rascal, Captain Dandy and Na Scoitear though all of those step up in distance today.
