    Verdict

    DARK KRIS finally got his head in front when coming out best in a blanket finish at Lingfield on his debut for Ivan Furtado. There could be more to come for his new yard and he’s taken to confirm latest running with both Maahi Ve and Gonzaga. The latter pair were beaten less than a length and can figure again while Dubai Elegance won one of these events at Southwell back in January but the veteran Miracle Garden has done all his winning over shorter trips so far.
