Verdict
Rockley Point finished a length ahead of Illegally Blonde when second here a week ago but never threatened the winner. Murdanova ran well enough at Chelmsford on his handicap debut without looking like winning but First Party has struggled since making a winning start at Nottingham back in May. SADIE BABES (NAP) has been keeping good company and finished only a length behind Furiant, rated 87, in a novice stakes last time. She should go close in this grade with a similar effort.
