Verdict

Things haven’t gone right for Bellshill Beauty so far this season but Roger Fell’s filly has dropped a fair way in the weights so she may not be one to give up on just yet. Jim Boyle has saddled few runners at Doncaster so the presence of NONSUCH LAD appears significant and he has placed off higher marks in the present. Neverbatsaneyelid kept on for pressure when tried here over a mile and represents a stable that have been among the winners of late but Kata Heart's was eased quickly at Musselburgh when reportedly losing his action.
