Verdict

Honey Of A Kitten does his winning on the all-weather nowadays and Attraction Ticket needed 1m4f to score at Kempton in May. An apprentice's claim allows Silkee Supreme to race off a lower mark than when winning at the same track back in February but Laconicos was still beaten five lengths when third at Newmarket last time. Brown Pete was beaten the same distance over track and trip a fortnight ago so the vote goes to GREEN EARTH to continue his winning ways having landed a four-timer when successful at Brighton last time.
