      Verdict

      Several faced stiffer tasks on their latest starts with both Inanna and Balalaika struggling in Pattern company and that pair make their handicap debuts along with Gareeb. Smiling Sunflower failed to beat a rival at last week’s All-Weather Championships but MYSTIC PEARL came up against a couple of Godolphin horses when beaten less than a length at Newmarket in October. The Haggas filly returns to action with every chance in an open affair. The Irish mare My Minervina debuts for a new yard 7lb higher than when last successful.
