Evaluation (1/1), Hellenista (9/2), Spantik (11/2), Bonne Vitesse (8/1), Rukwa (9/1), The Resdev Way (12/1), Kitten's Dream (16/1), Denable (20/1)

It's hard to know exactly what EVALUATION achieved when winning a slowly run 3-runner handicap at Wetherby on his return/yard debut on Tuesday but he drew right away at the finish and could be well-in under a penalty. Spantik ran a cracker when going close at Pontefract on his return 9 days ago and is next best ahead of in-form veteran The Resdev Way.
