Verdict
None of these inspire confidence but LOUBIERE placed at Beverley on her handicap debut without threatening the winner and may improve further. Seahorse Syd finished just behind the selection with Bellestarr well behind. Several make their handicap debuts including Likleman who may do better having been gelded.
