Verdict

TOMJACKWILLIAM improved further after 10 months off when losing out only narrowly to a similarly progressive sort with a fitness edge over C&D 3 weeks ago and can one better with further progress likely. Positive Thinker is also on the upgrade and looks the obvious threat as he bids for the hat-trick, with Union Park another to consider.
