        Verdict

        The unexposed Jubilee Girl is one to note going handicapping but PLAYDAY looked an improving sort when making all at Leicester over this trip and remains feasibly treated off a 4lb higher mark. That performance represented a marked improvement on previous efforts and there may well be more to come. Benjamin Bear inched home by the minimum margin at Leicester to land a first career success but this poses a more demanding question and Glittering Choice makes greater appeal. She was a disappointment last time but a previous neck second to Amanzoe reads well in the context of this contest. Samuel Spade is not the easiest to assess but Tessy Lad seems to be going the right way and makes the shortlist.
