    Verdict

    This isn’t much better than the seller CRY FURY finished second in at Lingfield when giving plenty of weight to the three-year-old winner. He gets the nod ahead of the penalised Petrify, who scored over track and trip last week. Mexican Mick went close in heavy ground at Leicester on his penultimate start with Phantom River well beaten in third and Turnbury won in soft going at Newbury before failing to figure back at the same track. Highlife Dancer found one too good at Yarmouth last month but has has not threatened in a couple of subsequent outings.
