Verdict
HOLY FIRE may have won by further at Kempton if not for hanging left in the closing stages. That should be less of a problem on this left-handed track and she can defy a penalty. Beau Roc placed yet again on her handicap debut and returns to novice company while Another Thought drops down in trip having finished third over a mile at Bath on her debut.
