Verdict

JACENRY offered little in a trio of maiden hurdles but he left those efforts behind when sixth in a big-field Down Royal handicap last month. He could be about to take another step forward now faced with a stiffer test. Little Token should come on for her recent spin at Clonmel and is next on the list, while Quornofamonday, Verbal Sparring and Brownstone also merit respect.
