Verdict

Shibuya Song won easily in this grade at Newbury and should be in the mix again but BUXTED REEL drops down in class on the back of a third at Ascot, when ahead of Love Mystery, and Ian Williams’ charge may prove the one to side with. The unexposed Turner Girl posted a promising effort at Newmarket on her handicap debut and first start of the year but Moonlit Warrior looks high enough in the weights.
