Verdict
Genesius placed again when runner-up over today’s trip but the recent winners step up in distance including At Liberty, who landed a double over 1m2f on Turf with last month’s success at Yarmouth. Barenboim and Obsidian Knight scored on the Polytrack recently and both beat Bugle Major in the process but SUNSTONE (NAP) posted her best effort so far when third in novice company at Chelmsford. She’ll be sharper today with the longer distance likely to suit the half-sister to the brilliant Midday and gets the vote on her handicap debut.
