Verdict

Handy maiden. TEX 'N' CEE (1) was in the market on debut at Northam and kept coming to finish runner-up in a solid figure. Fitter and looks suited by the extra ground. Can go one better. PEAK TYCOON (5) made debut as a juvenile at Ascot and was safely held and put away. Gave a sight fresh at Northam before being swamped late. Fitter and should take catching. ANGEL EXPRESS (6) is a first-starter by Splintex from Comme Ci who has been a prolific producer including winners at black type level. Won her most recent trial at Lark Hill. Promising type who should be monitored for market support. DINKY DOUBLE (7) is facing the starter for the first time. By Toronado and hails from the Grant & Alana Williams stable. Comes here off a Lark Hill trial. Top-three chance. ZESTY ZOOM (8) is a filly by Gingerbread Man facing the starter for the first time. Placed in a Lark Hill trial over 4 ¾f on September 7. Nice draw and worth watching.
