Verdict

This looks to concern the two penalised winners TRIPLE TRADE and Doctor Ken, with preference for the former having continued his race-by-race progression to open his account at Lingfield 3 weeks ago. With further improvement on the cards, he shades the vote. Olly Murphy's charge rates as the obvious threat ahead of Kim Bailey's debutants Trelawne and Captain Rose.

  1. TRIPLE TRADE
  2. DOCTOR KEN (FR)
  3. TRELAWNE
