Verdict

CHICAGO SCHOOL separated a couple of subsequent winners when third at Chester and gets the vote on the strength of that form now handicapping for the first time. Koothrappali disappointed when sent off favourite for a maiden at Beverley and headgear is applied for the first-time while Tikthebox never threatened when third in a handicap at Thirsk but drops down in class for this. Millennium Falcon has failed to figure since winning her maiden back in May and the remainder are even harder to fancy.
