Verdict

Corinthia Knight was due to race at Wolverhampton yesterday while Agostino remains a maiden after returning a losing favourite here. Course regular Sir Rodneyredblood has won six times here and pops-up when in the mood but FLETCHER’S FLIGHT is the least exposed. The latter won a novices' race at Redcar last month and another bold bid is expected on his handicap bow.
