Verdict

RECOGNITION made a winning reappearance at Wolverhampton and is upped 5lb. But that looks stronger form than Spinning Pearl’s maiden win over track and trip and Roger Varian’s colt can go in again. Judicial Enquiry and Rainbow Lad failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time having won their penultimate starts while The Juggler may appreciate the drop back in trip on only his second start handicapping.
