Verdict

Ectocross showed little in three starts on Turf last year but made a winning handicap debut at Lingfield last month. He’s preferred to Crosstitch and Southwell third Angel's Voice but PEACEFUL NIGHT gets the nod. The latter is upped in trip for her reappearance but is related to a a couple of smart winners over 2m with improvement also expected now handicapping for the first time.
