Verdict

SERGEANT proved a different proposition making handicap debut from just out of the weights when beating 13 rivals over C&D last month and the manner of victory suggests he can defy a 9 lb rise. Easkey Lad arrives in top form so rates the main threat ahead of Flamenco de Kerser, who can improve again now handicapping.
