In depth

Verdict

Prerogative finally opened his account after 29 attempts when scoring over 1m2f at Chelmsford. He should go well again while but Splash Of Verve ended a long losing run when landing a lowly Class 7 contest at Newcastle last time but will find this tougher. MRS BURBIDGE has been hurdling since beaten only a neck over track and trip in October. Adam Kirby’s presence is positive and she’s taken to make a winning return to the Flat. Vocal Heir has just the one win in Ireland to her credit and also returns to the level on her debut for new connections while Dolphin Village looks no nearer ending a long losing run.
