Verdict

Teescomponentsfly almost certainly ran better than expected here two weeks ago. Not What It Seems finally got his head in front over track and trip last month but now has to give 7lb to CARTONNE, who has been placing in stronger company and can record his first victory today. Neither Clean Getaway nor Pepite Fleurie have shown much so far.
