Verdict
Barney McGrew faces a tougher task after winning a seller at Thirsk last time despite racing off the same mark. JINKY (NAP) is preferred as three of his five wins to date have come at this course and he beat Blue Sonic, Monel and Indego Blues when scoring over track and trip last month. Linda Perrett's charge, who along with Blue Sonic was due to run here yesterday, has also won on soft ground before, unlike Native Falls, who won over course and distance in September and is 4lb higher today.
