Verdict

Coqueta is dropped in class after a poor effort on her return to action. But MELBURNIAN shares the same handicap rating and is preferred having posted an improved run at Chelmsford last time when three lengths behind the in-form Bayston Hill. Contingency Fee landed a seller at Lingfield recently with Kommodity Kid behind though meets higher rated opposition today and Dream Magic has more to find on these terms.
