Verdict

This can go the way of STUDIOUS who created a good impression when going in at Wolverhampton after a gelding operation and can make light of a 6 lb rise. Sweet Cicely appeals as the one to chase him home on the back of his excellent Wolverhampton second, with Cuban Lynx and Penelope Valentine also in the mix.
