      Verdict

      Mormeatmic has been in fine form of late and has to be respected but Mick Easterby's gelding has it to do to get the better of Ian Semple's lightly raced Dulce Sueno, who is 1lb better in for the head that divided the pair over course and distance earlier this month and she is taken to reverse that form with Glasshoughton rated the best of the rest. The selection is entitled to strip fitter for what was her first outing of the season and should improve also for what was only her fourth career start. Blazing Heights looks to be going the right way and is entitled to be thereabouts again, while Rondo is another that is lightly raced but needs to improve on what he showed on his debut in this grade last time. The Michael Dods-trained Glasshoughton has more to do than when winning at Sandown last time and preference is for Ian Semple's Dulce Sueno, who is taken to go one better today.
