Verdict

CHANGEOFMIND, one of three from Declan Carroll's yard here, made a winning debut when making all at Chester in June and, though unraced subsequently, obviously goes well fresh. Erosion Risk, who finished just over a length behind, has failed to win subsequently but will be 7lb better off. High Ovation has had three all-weather runs and didn't get the run of the race at Southwell last time while Whalley Road showed good pace over 6f at Pontefract and was beaten less than two lengths. Whisky McGonagall also finished close up at Thirsk when last seen a year ago though that was on fast going.
