Verdict

The betting suggested Biotic would improve on his reappearance and he duly obliged over track and trip. CRAZEE DIAMOND also scored on her latest start when winning easily at Wolverhampton. Mick Channon's filly gets a tentative vote to go in again though Android had gone close at Lingfield before disappointing last time and also has strong claims. Maiden winner Monashka Bay was unfancied in the betting for his handicap debut and ran accordingly but both Smidgen and Shrewd Bob are worth noting handicapping for the first time today.
