Verdict

Doyannie lost her maiden tag at the 16th time of asking at Plumpton and has been hit with a 9lb rise. ESTATE ITALIANA (NAP) had been showing very little until a better performance here then had plenty of support when scoring with a bit in hand at Ludlow. He's 6lb higher but looks progressive enough to go in again. School For Scandal has never won and is a few pounds out of the handicap but led for a long way over 2m4f at Wincanton and will take some catching over this trip. Rooster Cogburn scored easily at Hereford but couldn't handle the step-up to 2m4f at Huntingdon.
