Verdict

Many of these have been striving without success on all-weather tracks over the winter and are unlikely to show much improvement. That list includes Schoolboy Error, Falcon's Fire, Dark Illustrator, Frivolous Prince and Pivotal Dream. Opera Buffa looks to be going backwards but Granita has shown signs of ability and Fun Money is also worth a market check. Imshi's Little Bro warrants a market check after a pipe-opener at Southwell but Therthaar's three runs on Turf last year didn't offer much encouragement. It's a surprise to see ARTISANDRA making her handicap debut in such a lowly grade as she hinted at ability at Ffos Las and Goodwood last July. Providing she's wintered satisfactorily, a big run is anticipated.
