    Verdict

    Floral Bouquet has been returned to hurdles despite landing a couple of chase successes in the spring and seems sure to run her race. Gavrocheka scored nicely at Ffos Las on his penultimate outing but really disappointed last time and the jury is out for now. The same comments apply to The Wicket Chicken, although his failure last time came when tailed off around the idiosyncrasies of Cartmel, for which he's forgiven. Sa Alors remains a maiden but has only had five starts and shaped much better the last day but JUST ONCE, who didn't run too badly on chasing debut this month, should relish this return to timber and looks feasibly treated receiving weight all round.
