    Verdict

    JIGAJIG is marginally preferred to Seven Of Diamonds and Your Gifted. Kevin Ryan's gelding won readily at Wolverhampton off a mark of 46 and while he is 6lb higher, a young apprentice has been booked to take 7lb off. Seven Of Diamonds represents a yard that are in rude health so the market should be monitored on this drop back to the minimum trip. Your Gifted is without the blinkers that he wore last time out. Stephen Craine replaces an inexperienced apprentice. Blue Neptune was surprisingly beaten in a seller at Folkestone earlier in the month. Dower Glen still searches for that first victory. The handicapper had him at 71 a year ago and he now rates him some 13lb lower. Richard Guest has had a few winners of late so do not dismiss Bombay Mist in the first time eyeshields. Jigajig has the best profile in a race that will require little winning.
