Verdict

Having shown promise at the start of the month, Swift Verdict was very disappointing when failing to land the odds at Doncaster. He should be capable of better but ANFIELD GIRL won a handicap on the same card and appeared to handle soft going on debut here last year. She is still on a fair mark and is better treated than King's Charisma, who carries a 6lb penalty for winning in a lower grade race at Redcar. Red For All finished second at Windsor on his handicap debut but has not encountered going this soft before.
