Verdict
A couple travel over from Ireland with a chance in a weak contest. Both Lady Greta and Bellepower posted better efforts at Dundalk on their respective handicap debuts but the same can be said of HEATHERDOWN. The latter left his previous form behind when headed close home at Kempton on his handicap bow and Michael Bell’s charge is taken to go one better. Geography Teacher’s earlier success came over 6f at Southwell when narrowly beating Farump while Micronize also returns to 7f. Macs Blessings may prove best of the rest.
