Verdict

It difficult not to be impressed by the way DEEBAJ went clear of the field in the closing stages at Lingfield last time, and if he's able to transfer that level of form to this course, he may well be able to defy a 6lb rise in the weights, with a top AW jockey in Adam Kirby keeping the ride. He is taken to see off recent C&D runner-up Aumerie and Three Colours Red, who ran well behind a good quality opponent when last seen, also at Lingfield.
  1. Deebaj
  2. Aumerle
  3. Three Colours Red
