Verdict

VITESSE DU SON scored over track and trip recently and should be thereabouts again. Lets Go Lucky posted a better effort at Brighton on her debut for a new yard and won a claimer here last term while Dark Crocodile also improved on his first start for a new trainer though never threatened the winner. Bernard Spierpoint and Roca Magica slide further down the weights and may prove best of the rest.
