Verdict
WROOD finished ahead of a subsequent winner when third in a blanket finish over track and trip on her handicap debut. James Fanshawe's filly may find enough improvement to land this. But others have similar claims including Kempton runner-up Hedge End while both Principle Equation and Dream Child found only one too good at Nottingham and Newbury respectively on their latest outings. Rosehill Artist is usually thereabouts at this level without being quite good enough.
