Verdict

DARK FOREST shaped well on his return to 6f and can register a first win on turf in this 0-85 event. The selection finished a close second on his return to 6f last time and can get the better of Manshood who was a winner here last month prior to disappointing in a better contest at Goodwood subsequently. C&D winner Dirchill is taken to claim third on his return to handicap company having run out the easy winner of a maiden here last time.
