Verdict

RIVER ICON can record her second second win in three starts by taking this concluding contest. The selection was a winner on soft ground at Cartmel in May and made a satisfactory handicap debut when runner-up off a 2lb lower mark subsequently. The selection has the services of the promising Bruce Lynn in the saddle here and can get the better of Lake Malawi who finished third behind two Graded performers here last September and returns to handicaps today while Gold Chain, a winner twice at the May meeting here can claim third.
