Verdict
BIOLOGIST has decent claims if staying the extra distance. The Haggas filly has the edge on these terms over over Alice's Dream, who ran poorly in a handicap at Kempton recently. Control Centre was well ahead of Gerrard's Return when landing a seller over 6f here a fortnight ago but had earlier fallen victim to Chevalier du Lac over today’s trip at Leicester. The latter never figured on his latest start while the remainder have plenty to find at the weights if they are to get involved.
