Verdict

Fozzie Bear is 0-10 but has been thereabouts in all four starts since the turn of the year, latterly in a higher grade at Epsom. Gelded after a staying-on fourth at Brighton in August, John O'Groats catches the eye on his handicap debut while Kingdom Girl will strip fitter for a run at Yarmouth. Progressive on Polytrack this year, ROYAL AVIATION should probably be given a chance to reproduce that form back on Turf.
