Verdict

Hic Bibi beat American Endeavour a couple of length over track and trip recently and the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms. Rux Ruxx has been thereabouts since scoring at Lingfield in July and sports headgear for the first time today while Sonnet Rose won over track and trip before struggling over 6f here and is 3lb higher. SAYESSE won for Mick Channon earlier this year and has joined a new yard after posting a better effort at Musselburgh last time. Now back on a winning mark with an apprentice’s allowance in his favour, he may well make a winning start for Lisa Williamson.
