        Verdict

        HARB (NAP) finally took advantage of a tumble down the weights when scoring with plenty in hand over track and trip in September and can go in again now back to winning ways. Muscika won off a similar mark at Haydock during the summer while Inevitable Outcome scored off a lower mark at Wolverhampton at the start of the year. Pandemic Princess won at Dundalk when trained in Ireland but debuts for new connections.
