Verdict

Chief Justice has just one blip on his record but is often slowly away and wouldn’t want to give AYUTTHAYA too many lengths start. Kevin Ryan’s charge probably sulked a little on his reappearance at Musselburgh when he couldn’t get to the front but that was still a fair effort. He’d been backed off the boards and supporters will want to recoup their losses. Rare Groove doesn’t have much to find at the weights while any market support for newcomer Changing Minds would have to be noted.
