Verdict

Course regular Pageant Material won here before finishing behind DICEY RIELLY when the latter scored over a shorter trip here last month. Unlucky over today’s trip before that when falling at the last, she can go in again. Head And Heart got off the mark over fences when winning at Huntingdon while Shirocco's Dream beat Do You Think when successful at the same track on her chasing bow. Police Academy went close at Wincanton last time and is upped in distance.
