Verdict

OUTGUN was the best of those that came up the centre when third in a C&D handicap last month and, if more goes his way, this progressive gelding might well be able to open his account. Vegas Jack shaped well behind Racing Demon (who re-opposes) at Salisbury last time, so he's a danger, while Isle of Jura is a notable handicap debutant.
