Relinquished got off the mark in good style last time out and can follow up in this competitive nursery, Geoffdaw and Glenshee are two others worthy of a mention. Jeremy Noseda does well with his all-weather runners and Relinquished, who smoothly landed a Beverley maiden last time out can add to the trainers tally. She had previously run well in a class two handicap at Newmarket and so her current mark doesn't look too bad. Geoffdaw hit winning form at the second time of asking and should go well on his handicap debut despite a steadier of nine stone seven. Glenshee is improving with racing and appears to have got in here on a decent enough mark, he should make his presence felt. Lavemill is also interesting down at the bottom of the handicap, but the better form has been shown by Relinquished and she gets the verdict.
