        Verdict

        MME De Stael clearly has her own ideas about the game but the fact she's had an absence of 101 days suggests that there was more than just recalcitrance behind the modest run last time out and we take her to bounce back to form. Iron Condor clearly likes life around Kempton though a mark of 72 is plenty tough enough. Lauberhorn has gone well in smaller fields before so don't dismiss him too readily from a big run. Regency Girl seemed to improve for the application of headgear and with useful 7lb claimer, Julie Burke, in the saddle, a bold run can be anticipated. High On A Hill is gradually heading back towards a winning mark and is another to note in the market.
