Verdict

KADO DE JOIE is a progressive youngster who's well worth another chance to prove this mark isn't beyond him having been left with too much to do at Wincanton. Porter In The Park can bounce back now returning to more suitable company after a break, with Mostly Sunny another to note having eased further in the weights.
