In depth

Verdict

Winning pointer Rock On Rita is interesting but may need further. Glasha's Peak was third here on her return to action but former stablemate Midnight Ginger is more interesting having found Listed company too hot to handle after scoring at Fakenham. Allavina made her hurdles bow at the Norfolk track and only found one too good. She has scope but BELLE DE MANECH sets the standard on her defeat of a couple of potentially-useful recruits at Wincanton with a previous winner well beaten in fourth.
