Verdict
SIMPLIFY ended her juvenile campaign with a victory in a good Thirsk novice event and Andrew Balding's filly merits plenty of respect off a mark of 80 on her handicap bow. Dark Angel Star was last seen filling second spot at Chelmsford and is another with strong form claims. Kolkata Knight edges out The Lost Sock and Concert to be next best.
Expert View Verdict
A fair sprint handicap that can go to DARK ANGEL STAR, who didn't get the best of runs and should have gone close to winning at Chelmsford last time. She missed her intended reappearance but retains lots of potential for handicaps this term and can take this under Rossa Ryan. There are a few serious rivals including Simplify, who despite a wide drawn on handicap debut boasts an appealing profile and is from a top stable, and The Lost Sock, who looked on the up until bombing out over 6f on reappearance. That was too bad to be true and he could boounce back returned to the minimum trip here.
