Verdict

Not an easy contest to weigh up and for a three-year-old handicap there don’t look to be too may obvious improvers although handicaps debutante Harba looks an obvious contender although she is drawn a little wide. Happy Escape and Dragon Dream have to prove their effectiveness on turf but are closely matched on their running last time at Kempton Park. Pass The Cristal and Beepeecee both look held now by the handicapper and it may pay to take a chance with A SURE WELCOME who is another who has to prove himself on turf but is well drawn and travels well. Of the others top weight Milburn Jack is the one that catches the eye the most especially if he settles better in the first-time blinkers having run better than his final position at Newbury last time.
  1. A Sure Welcome
  2. Harba
