Verdict

RADIO GOO GOO makes a quick reappearance on the back of an impressive success at Haydock earlier in the week. She bids for a hat-trick having earlier beaten third-placed Royal Dress over track and trip, with Frankness and Corinthian Kid further behind, and will likely be raised by more than today’s penalty in the future. Novice winner Distinguished Lady returns to action with a shout on her handicap debut and is preferred to Palm Lily while Absolutelyflawless returned to winning ways at Wolverhampton having won the Lily Agnes here at this time last year.
