Verdict

AT A PINCH has a spin on the Flat since finishing fourth at Leicester on her handicap debut over hurdles. She drops down a grade for this and the novice winner gets another chance. Midnight Callisto disappointed over a longer trip here last time while Eventful wasn’t at her best on soft ground recently but scored over track and trip before that and is preferred to Sorceress Medea, who makes her handicap bow having switched yards since last in action.
