Verdict

GREEN OR BLACK looked likely to place at Newbury but fell at the last. This is less competitive and Neil Mulholland’s mare could go close with a clear round. Sorbet makes her handicap debut after winning a maiden hurdle at Market Rasen while See The Eagle Fly drops down in class on her second start after a wind operation having finished in front of both Progressive and Sarceaux when fifth at Cheltenham.
