Verdict

Few make any appeal but INVERINATE went close on the Turf course at Lingfield last week on his first start gelded and can race off the same mark for this. Wilde And Dandy wasn’t beaten that far when fourth at Doncaster and drops back down in trip while Midnight Flame slips further down the weights and Captain Wentworth finished in front of River Lyne when placed at Kempton earlier.
