Verdict

COVERHAM (NAP) has looked a little one-paced so far but cheekpieces may help and he's been lucky with the draw here. James Bethell's son of Bated Breath hasn't made the trip down from Middleham for the good of his health and can land the spoils. Fanfair and Jumping Jack have to be of interest now going handicapping and Born To Please is similarly unexposed, though was beaten by Mesmeric Moment in a seller at Windsor last time.
