POOL HOUSE finished third in a handicap over track and trip earlier in the month. He may well be good enough at this level despite giving plenty of weight to the three-year-old Jaganory. The latter was expected to do better in a claimer at Salisbury last week and gets a first-time visor while Conry, who just missed out at Catterick recently, could also go well. Well beaten at Southwell on Monday, Al Muheer had been in fine form on the all-weather before that but has not won on Turf since 2013.
