In depth

Verdict

All of these step up in distance in a weak contest. FORESHADOW has placed the last twice and finished ahead of Away Wit Da Fairys, due to run at Kempton yesterday, when runner-up at Southwell with previous winner All About Alice and Rita Rana further behind. Tsubaki has shown no improvement for handicapping while Marmalashes and Satanic Moon may prove best of those making their handicap debuts though none of that group have threatened so far.
