Verdict
Hadley Park has improved for going handicapping but is now 10lb higher than when successful at Chelmsford last month. Zephina’s earlier success came over 6f while Emperor Zen failed to show any improvement upped to today’s trip at Wolverhampton. But THUNDER BALL placed in a higher grade over track and trip on his first attempt at a mile and a similar effort should see him go close in this company. Blue Universe, Corsican Caper and Optiva Star make their handicap debuts with the former preferred.
