Verdict

Low-mileage 10-y-o JUNIPER has made a positive start for this yard and this very assured jumper is taken to complete the hat-trick having another go in this (went close behind extremely well-in rival 12 months ago). La Renommee rates a big threat back down in class, with Moviddy another to consider back chasing.
