      Verdict

      Without Delay has failed to build on a second at Catterick and DOOMSDAY is preferred. The latter improved for the step up to today’s trip when third at Doncaster having slipped 12lb down the weights since last autumn. Thakuri and Kata Heart's finished closer on their latest starts without threatening but the former is fitted with cheekpieces for this.
