    Verdict

    FAIRY STORIES (NAP) romped home by six lengths over the minimum trip at Nottingham last week. An apprentice’s allowance negates most of a 6lb penalty and Richard Fahey’s filly looks the one to beat in this. Chitra has been raised 5lb after making a winning reappearance at Salisbury but both wins so far have been over 6f while Three Little Birds and Justice Lady slip further down the weights though neither look any nearer a return to a winning ways. Society Star is the lest exposed and worth a second glance handicapping for the first time on her seasonal debut.
