        Verdict

        Freebe Rocks and The Night King scored over a mile at Kempton and this track respectively on their latest starts. The latter finished in front of OLIVE MABEL on that occasion but Dean Ivory’s filly was having her first start since last summer and may well find enough improvement to turn the tables on today’s more favourable terms. Vodka Pigeon has finished a bit closer over 6f since starting handicapping but an earlier effort over today’s trip doesn’t inspire confidence.
