Verdict

SISTERANDBROTHER beat Blue Hero by only a head over a shorter trip here on his reappearance and debut for a new yard. He’ll be sharper for that run and can confirm running on better terms with an apprentice’s allowance negating a rise in the weights. Bobby Kennedy went close over 1m6f here back in October and returns to action along with handicap debutant Papas Boy, who is also fitted with cheekpieces for the first time.
