Verdict

Daafy disappointed at Wolverhampton having earlier gone close over a mile here with a below par De Bruyne Horse behind. Mister Freeze was placed at the track before struggling behind Lincoln Red when the latter scored over track and trip with Groupie back in third but FLY TRUE (NAP) looks set for a return to winning ways. Ivan Furtado’s mare is now back on the same mark as when winning over course and distance at this time last year and a recent second here points to a bold bid. Secret Treaties debuts on the surface and London continues to slide down the weights.
