Verdict

Another chance can be given to EDWARDTHENINTH, who made a bright start for this yard when runner-up at Newcastle in September and his subsequent effort at the same course can be excused, given that he was found to be moving poorly by the racecourse vet post-race. If this trip proves to be within Electric Bass' range he will surely be in the mix, along with Lahire, Mio Amico and Taranjerine.

5	Last of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f, 10/11) 71 days ago.
