Verdict
CHIL CHIL (NAP) shot clear when making her handicap debut at Kempton and she should be good enough to defy a penalty if transferring that form back to Turf. Bath winner Good Answer didn’t fare as well having his first run in a handicap at Doncaster and Shake Me Handy disappointed at Bath having finished second twice on Polytrack earlier. The Groove is only a plater and Mr Buttons looks to be treading water off his current mark.
