    Verdict

    EAGLE’S FOOT was fitted with a tongue-tie and upped in trip when scoring over course and distance. Gelded since then, further progress looks likely and James Bethell’s charge can confirm running with third-placed Teescomponentsfly and Wemyss Point. The latter has subsequently found one too good back here but Nataleena’s form has tapered off having won three times earlier in the year and Monjeni is preferred now back on a winning mark.
