This looks a cracking contest and the form should be worth following in the months ahead. Khafoo Shememi won over 1m on Polytrack on his reappearance but was third over course and distance last year and also fourth in a Listed race at Doncaster. Original Choice had Berkshire Boy behind when scoring at Wolverhampton last month while there should be more to come from Jewel House now he’s got his head in front. Bacchus was prominent throughout when beating the strongly-fancied Chessman at Newbury last month but WINNING WAYS was the eye-catcher that day, finishing strongly in third having met traffic problems when first pulled out. A pound better off with the winner, Jeremy Noseda’s charge can take his revenge and land this ahead of Chelmsford second Rusumaat.
