        Verdict

        None of these inspire confidence and SESAME has to be forgiven a poor effort at Catterick last time. But she’d earlier placed in handicaps including over today’s trip at Ffos Las so gets a token vote. She’s preferred to Yellow Fire and Havana Ooh Na Na on that form and the latter’s stablemate Fflur is one of several making their handicap debuts. That list also includes Royal Dancer, representing last year’s winning yard, while Miss Green Dream and Torolight are others likely to improve now handicapping though they all need to on what little they have shown so far.
