Verdict
Edgeworth is not easily dismissed back on a winning mark and it was soft going when Black Coffee scored at Redcar last month. Circle Of Angels is better than her below-par effort at Ayr suggests, while Glyn Ceiriog has gone close at Chester on her last two starts. KODICIL is showing good progress and scored over today's trip at Beverley last month with a subsequent winner back in second. Tim Walford's charge gets the vote to follow up just ahead of Market Puzzle, who won under today's apprentice in soft ground at Yarmouth on his penultimate start.
