        Verdict

        DAYTIME AHEAD came good over today’s trip at Wincanton a week ago and a conditional’s allowance negates a 7lb penalty - she can go close again. Leviathan continues to tumble down the weights and drops down in class as a consequence while Etheridge Annie posted her best effort so far when third at Exeter and could get involved. Distant Sound had been threatening a return to winning ways before falling at the first last time but the remainder are harder to fancy.
