Phantasy Mac is still improving and won back on the all-weather at Wolverhampton last time but Blueberry Hill is upped in trip having failed to figure in handicaps so far. Later Darling ran well in novice company at Goodwood but SAVROLA found only one too good in the soft going at Newmarket on his first attempt at today’s distance and Chris Wall’s charge may prove to the one to side with in this. Lady Shotgun is preferred of those handicapping for the first time.
