Verdict

GREY GRAY (NAP) has won two of her last three outings and may well defy a penalty for last week’s success at Musselburgh given the talented apprentice Morgan Cole has won on his last three rides for the yard. Kandy House, Lightning Point and stablemate Desert Master were all well beaten on their handicap debuts, though the latter drops down in class. Happy Tears debuts in a nursery on her first start on the all-weather.
