Verdict

UTHER PENDRAGON, a winner over course and distance in July, is the tentative selection in a modest finale. Asense made all in an apprentices’ classified race at Lingfield last month and looks the danger with Highland Flyer 0-8 and not getting any closer. The latter was behind Kindgirl here in July but Queen Of Steel usually runs her race.
