Verdict

ELLA'S HONOUR keeps finding one too good but has done nothing wrong and probably just bumped into a couple of smart performers in his last two starts so he can get off the mark. Burner is bred to be a miler but was staying on strongly over that trip at Windsor and the extra here looks his distance. After racing exclusively over a mile, Field Of Light has been tried over 1m4f on his last two starts and has run well enough to suggest this trip is exactly what he needs. Goodnightsuzy was well supported at Wolverhampton but the confidence was misplaced when he could only stay on at one pace while Deemah is penalised for last week's victory over a mile at Chepstow, her first start for new connections after transferring from Ireland.
