In depth

Verdict

Jameerah ended last year with a win at Chelmsford and goes handicapping for the first time along with Little Miss Kodi. The latter was placed at Wolverhampton in both starts early this year while Strummer was second at Carlisle last month to Ponty Royale, who runs in the previous division but it could pay to stick with KAFOO in this. A winner over 7f at Lingfield on his latest start, he is likely to make another bold bid with further progress on the cards. Mon Beau Visage continues to slide down the weights and could bounce back at any time.
