      Verdict

      NOODLE MISSION showed a big improvement stepping up from the minimum trip and winning easily over the extended mile at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut. He’s due to be raised 9lb in the future so can shrug off today’s penalty. Naomi's Charm wasn’t helped by a wide draw at Southwell last time while both Magicdollar and Sprezzatura step up from 7f and the latter went close in maiden company last time.
