Verdict
This looks quite competitive for an apprentices’ race but STREET JESTER has won three times on this track and beat a decent yardstick here last time so gets a tentative vote head of another course specialist in Lady Elysia. Master Grey is usually thereabouts without being quite good enough but collateral form appears to give Brighton winner Miss Tiki the beating of both Temur Khan and Alambrista and she shouldn’t be ignored. Villanelle and Turn Of Phrase also enter calculations.
