Verdict

The betting suggested CAPUCHINERO would improve on her second start after wind surgery and she duly obliged at Chelmsford last week - she’s taken to defy a penalty. Wolverhampton third Haworth Star is less exposed than most but Bella Kopella steps up in trip after finishing second over 6f here. Bobby Joe Leg and Pink Parfait are usually in the mix while Plink makes his handicap debut having been sold out of the Haggas yard.
