        Verdict

        Byford made a successful trip over to France to win a maiden race back in August. He’s penalised for that and YANKEE STADIUM can take advantage. The former Ballydoyle inmate has a recent debut for new connections under his belt when placing at Chelmsford and should prove too good for these. Tex Australia and Going Underground are likely improvers with the latter preferred while bumper winner Steel An Icon and Blueskyandsunshine debut on the Flat.
