Verdict

Sky Blue Thinking’s winning run came to an end at Wolverhampton last month but Prospect returned to winning ways when scoring over track and trip. Internationalangel and Liger King are recent winners at Yarmouth and the former has switched yards while Legende D'art placed over track and trip and can race off the same mark. But STONE CIRCLE began the season rated 17lb higher and after finding one too good over 6f here last week, Michael Bell’s charge finally looks set to take advantage.
