Verdict
Though only a pound higher than when scoring over 2m4f here in May, Headscarf Lil was well beaten on a return visit in June. Oslo clearly needed the run at Bangor but was rallying in the closing stages. However, his yard also run AJP KINGDOM (NAP), who looks more than capable of handling the switch from novice to handicap company under regular pilot Connor Brace. Copper Beach won at Uttoxeter in June but couldn’t handle a 7lb penalty at Aintree eight days later and has been raised a further 5lb since.
