      Verdict

      LITTERALE CI blundered badly on her fencing bow at Ffos Las last week and was quickly pulled up. The fact that she’s turned out again quickly suggests connections expected much better and she’s a danger to all here with a clear round. Innocent Touch was well beaten at Hexham but up against a couple of useful novices and will know more today. Equus Millar has won three times over hurdles but his two runs this year have been very disappointing and a switch to fences will need to spark a revival.
