Verdict

It's a surprise that Cieran Fallon can still ride in an apprentice race and Hughie Morrison has booked him for Sulochana, who has been running well but has her first start on the surface. The stable also run Mystery Mac, who makes his handicap and all-weather debut on what looks a high enough mark. Critique was beaten in a Lingfield seller on his penultimate start but ran a bit better at Chelmsford while Bad Attitude scored on the latter track in March and has run well enough in his last two starts to get into contention. Dylan Hogan is one of the more experienced riders here and PAX BRITANNICA was racing in slightly better company on Tapeta at Newcastle when not beaten far in fifth and could be good enough.
