Verdict

AMERICAN AFFAIR (NAP) was no match for the winner when runner-up over track and trip but drops down a couple of grades for this and today’s faster ground will also suit. Vortigan gets a change of headgear after a recent third here and is preferred to Rwenearlytheredad and Wreck It Ryley, who look stuck on their current marks, but Labiqa is less exposed and makes her handicap debut.
