In depth
Verdict
A dual winner on the all-weather, A Pint Of Bear made a winning debut on Turf when scoring at Catterick. Modular Magic won on fast going at Ayr last month while The Princes Poet scored in novice company at Windsor. Dapper Man escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race at Haydock while Little Muddy beat Never Say Never at Doncaster and both go handicapping for the first time. But INTERNATIONAL GIRL was beaten only a neck at Redcar on her handicap bow and Richard Fahey’s unexposed filly may be the one to side with in an open sprint.
