Verdict

It's not easy to quantify quite what MERRIJIG achieved when accounting for some below-par rivals at Ripon 2 weeks ago but he's still worth crediting with a career-best effort and, with the likelihood of a good pace to aim at, John Berry's charge could be worth chancing to complete the hat-trick from his revised mark. Fellow recent winner Arrange, who finished runner-up in this 12 months ago, is another of interest along with Haydock-scorer Surrey Belle.
