Verdict

Gentle Ellen opened her account back in maiden company at Ayr while it was heavy going when CALETA SUNRISE finished runner-up at Catterick. The latter has yet to win but the underfoot conditions should suit and she’s taken to go one better. Clarets Glory posted one of his better efforts at Wolverhampton but Matty Too is preferred dropping back down in class.
