      Verdict

      Choral Society makes her handicap debut after her maiden success over 7f here and may just need this after an absence of 70 days though there's plenty more to come. Stablemate Roman General was very disappointing when odds-on here last week and though Tawariyka showed a good attitude to land a fillies' maiden a fortnight ago when Celtic Crystal was behind she'll find this tougher. KEDLESTON landed a monster gamble over the C&D three weeks ago and not surprisingly the assessor has had his say with a massive 14lb rise. However, he won very easily and should be good enough to complete a quick double.
