Verdict

WORLINGTON wouldn't be the first from the Boughey yard to prove a different proposition in handicaps and he shaped well on his debut in this sphere at Wolverhampton last month. He gets the nod over Fickle McSelfish, who arrives in good form but has the widest stall to overcome, and returning nursery winner Dalamara.
