Verdict
The customary bumper ends proceedings and this contest offers a good opportunity for BUGGI to open her account as she was probably given too much to do when a staying-on fourth here on her debut. Canton Prince has gone backwards since his second at Market Rasen in October and Cordey Warrior has shown little so far but a market move for Toulouse The Plot could be interesting and Make My Heart Fly might be another newcomer to note.
