Verdict

None of these inspire confidence and CHAMPAGNE PINK should have done better at Newcastle last time. But she had notched up a treble before that including a couple of course and distance wins and gets another chance. International Law ended last year with a victory at Windsor in October and Maestro Mac was beaten at Yarmouth in the same month having won at Chelmsford earlier. Spirit Of Sarwan has something to prove over today’s longer trip and Sean O'Casey was due to run at Chelmsford yesterday.
