      Verdict

      Great Hall goes handicapping for the first time after landing a Newmarket maiden over 1m4f while the lightly-raced pair Street Artist and Dragon City also step up in trip after decent efforts over shorter. Debdebdeb is yet another stretching out a further two furlongs after scoring at Newbury but Argent Knight won over today's trip at Nottingham in May. He's since found LION BEACON too good at Sandown, however, and the latter is taken to record a hat-trick here, despite an 8lb rise, as there looks more to come from Amanda Perrett's charge.
