Verdict

WATERMELON SUGAR overcame trouble in-running to land the odds on debut at Wolverhampton. That wasn’t much of a race but this is no better and, with more to come, he can complete a double under Hollie Doyle. The danger is probably Rhinoplasty, who is more exposed but has also won at Wolverhampton. Lincoln Dream won a claimer at that track two runs ago with Profit And Loss possibly the pick of the remainder.
