      Verdict

      Fact Or Fable quickly returns to action having finished runner-up at Kempton earlier in the week while Channel Packet went close in a classified race at Wolverhampton. Eastern Star also placed in classified company at Kempton but SIMPLY GORGEOUS was having her first start since last summer and debuting for a new yard when producing a late flourish at the latter track to finish fourth. She may be up to winning off her current mark in this less competitive race.
