Golden Jubilee scored on his return to action at Windsor three weeks ago. Up 4lb, he may not be able to hold off the attentions of DERFENNA ART this time. The latter was a fast finishing third at Windsor and ridden a bit closer to the pace today, Seamus Durack's charge can reverse running. Wyndham Wave and Lady Percy finished further behind in the same race and Tiger Club makes more appeal after a better effort last time while Emperor Vespasian has claims if rediscovering the form of his third at Salisbury last term and Uncle Roger may figure on April's second at Nottingham.
