Verdict

A dire maiden whose only redeeming feature is that it sees the return to action of the potentially-useful chaser MIXBOY, who will probably handle conditions better than most and can make a winning debut under this code. Lazarus was no match for Royal Line at Windsor but the winner might be useful. Stylish Dancer has travelled up from Newmarket but has shown little in her two runs to date but Lough Salt has won over 3m over hurdles, though is likely to find this too short.
