    Verdict

    BRITANNICA has returned a losing favourite on her last three starts now but is weighted to get the better of Moon Flight. The latter is fitted with a hood for this and the less exposed Souffionne may prove a bigger threat with normal progress after finishing fourth at Southwell on his debut. Muddy Marvellous is hard to recommend.
