Verdict

Better is expected from Earth And Sky back over a mile today and the same comment applies to Always Fearless. Old News has been running well over 7f but Purgatory finished runner-up over today’s distance at Yarmouth last time. Kinsman has struggled in both starts handicapping and has been gelded but Sidereal ran well over track and trip on his handicap debut and can figure. KHAALIS makes his handicap debut but was an impressive winner over course and distance in novice company a fortnight ago when giving the impression there was plenty left in the tank and Owen Burrows’ colt looks worth sticking with.
