Verdict

DERBY DESIRE has been running well over 1m4f at Wolverhampton recently. He's worth another try back over this shorter trip with the useful apprentice Billy Cray in the plate. Know No Fear finished runner-up on his first attempt at racing further than a mile and there should be more to come from him, while Amends has every chance judged on his good effort here in August. Catbells is better than her latest effort suggests and she had Mayfair's Future well behind when winning at Brighton in October.
