MOTHER JONES is turning into a typically busy David Evans sprinter who wins in her turn and it would be no surprise to see her put in another solid effort here. She probably found the heavy ground not to her liking at Doncaster last time but has winning form on the soft and still looks to be on a fair mark, especially taking into account Matthew Cosham's useful allowance. Boucher Garcon may be in the grip of the handicapper after a cracking start to the season but looks sure to be there or thereabouts again, especially with Jason Hart claiming a valuable 7lb. Market support for Black Annis Bower on her reappearance would be interesting as she likes this ground, while the consistent Triple Dream looks best of the Bradley duo.
