        Verdict

        Blake's Vision was placed over 6f here before scoring over today’s trip at Southwell and another bold bid is expected despite a 4lb penalty. But AMAZING NEWS wasn’t beaten far when fourth over track and trip on last month’s debut though hung-right for most of the race despite fitted with a hood. The headgear is removed for this and he could go close if keeping a straight line. Global Esteem ran well for third at Leicester on his debut back in September but Ayr Harbour disappointed at Kempton last time having placed at Lingfield earlier. Bayar is a likely improver and Brodick is a newcomer to note.
