Verdict

PROBATION has shown promise in each of his 3 starts and with this step up to 1½m sure to suit, Kevin Philippart de Foy's gelding can make a winning handicap debut at the expense of Golden Orbit, who has been set a couple of stiff tasks this season but should find this assignment significantly easier.

2	In frame all 3 starts and took a small step forward in form terms when third of 8 in maiden at this course (1¼m, heavy) just under 6 weeks ago. Step up in trip looks a good move and he's one to note now switched to a handicap. 1st Pick 2 Probation Jockey: Alexandra Egan Trainer: Kevin Philippart De Foy J: Alexandra Egan T: Kevin Philippart De Foy	100	-	-	-	67%	1/2

1	Sea The Stars filly who saw off a next-time-out winner when making a winning start in 7f Newmarket maiden last September. Hiked up in trip/class this season but hasn't been up to the task. Should find this switch to a handicap much easier and first-time cheekpieces replace blinkers. 2nd Pick 1 Golden Orbit Jockey: Rossa Ryan Trainer: Ralph Beckett J: Rossa Ryan T: Ralph Beckett	97	-	-	-	39%	8/5

3	Looks to have been brought along with handicaps in mind but never figured on first start in such company after a 3-month break at this course (9f, heavy) just under 6 weeks ago. Upped further in trip but tough to see him featuring from 2 lb out of weights. 3rd Pick 3 Rajendra Jockey: Saffie Osborne Trainer: David Simcock J: Saffie Osborne T: David Simcock	93	-	-	-	23%	7/2
