Verdict

FLYING VERSE had shaped as if back in form before unseating at Wincanton last Thursday, not done with when departing 3 out through no fault on his own. He's been ultra-consistent for his new yard, and he's taken to gain a deserved first win under the care of Tom Symonds. Sizing At Midnight heads up the dangers as he seeks an impressive hat-trick, ahead of Kitty's Light.
