Verdict

SHARES (7) knuckled down strongly on debut to get within a length of the winner over 6f here. Is sure to have come on from that and is drawn much kinder this time. Bold showing anticipated. SOUNDWAVE (8) caught the eye last start here when charging into fourth after settling at the rear. Drawn to get back again but can cause a headache late if the pace is genuine. CIRCUS LIGHTS (15) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing fourth over 6 ½f at Seymour. Likely improver who is among the better chances. POETIC WAY (6) was too bad to be true on debut here when well supported. Childs sticking is a good push and the blinkers go on. Watch for sharp improvement.
