      Verdict

      Novice winner BALLYQUIN was placed in a Class 4 contest at Lingfield on his handicap debut and should have the measure of these dropping down in class. The Groove had Secondo back in third when winning a lowly seller over 7f here recently but Monumental Man looks a bigger threat on these terms having placed at the track the last twice. Fast Track came up short in a tougher plating race here last month and can figure ahead of the returning Ninjago.
