Verdict

Battle Of Waterloo is penalised for winning at Chelmsford but drops down a grade and is not out of this. Woodside Wonder showed signs of a resurgence when runner-up at Catterick ahead of Bumbledom but stablemate GOMETRA GINTY (NAP) is less exposed. The latter wasn’t beaten far when fourth over track and trip on her handicap debut and Keith Dalgleish’s filly can land this with further progress expected. Kermouster has been winning lower grade contests and carries 6lb extra after scoring at Leicester while Diviner went close over a mile here before disappointing at Sandown.
