Verdict
SAMEDI SOIR was given a confident ride by James Reveley to score at Hexham. The step up in trip clearly suited and the five-year-old has enough scope to defy a 10lb hike in the ratings. Ginger Fizz is fancied to reverse Southwell running with Miss Sassypants on 5lb better terms and should confirm that form with the largely-disappointing Bella. It took Magic Magnolia 12 attempts to get off the mark but that should have given her some confidence and she makes more appeal than Java Rose, Goldray and Queen Spud on these terms.
