Verdict
Well Prepared recorded a double in classified company before struggling on the soft ground at Bath while Captain Pugwash went close in a classified contest at Lingfield. Crazy Spin never figured back in a handicap at Southwell and Young Winston has yet to win on the all-weather. DARK COMPANY should be sharper for last month’s reappearance and gets the vote in a weak contest.
