    Verdict

    Highland Dress returned a beaten favourite dropped back down to today’s trip at Lingfield. He gets a change of headgear today but is taken on with the returning ALJADY. The latter made a winning seasonal debut when recording the first of last year’s four wins and Bob Cowell’s charge should take to the surface racing on the all-weather for the first time. May Sonic is still improving but has a tough task on these terms.
