Verdict
A winner at Ripon, Eskendash failed to cope with a rise in the weights at Newmarket last time. Matewan scored over 1m2f at the latter track and has a 7lb hike to contend with while the progressive WEATHER FRONT (NAP) has been upped a further 6lb after winning at Hamilton and beating Helioblu Bareliere in the process. But the winner scored more easily than the winning margin would suggest and the hat-trick beckons for Karen McLintock’s charge. Vision Clear won over track and trip before disappointing at Wolverhampton while Winston C won at the same track last year and debuts for Harry Fry on his reappearance.
