Verdict

Despite his sprinting pedigree, Jenson Benson beat Trepidation when scoring over a mile here though attempts this longer trip for the first time. AGENT OF FORTUNE has been knocking on the door with recent placed efforts over track and trip and she gets the vote to return to winning ways and confirm running with Headley George in the process. Lisdarragh was placed yet again when second at Bath but Bbob Alula went close at the same track last time ahead of Miss Sligo.
