Verdict
Weardiditallgorong was in good form on Turf at Lingfield last month. MERLIN’S BEARD (NAP) was too strong for It's How We Roll at Bath last week with the first two pulling well clear. Richard Hughes’ three-year-old has a 4lb penalty here but it shouldn’t be enough for the second to reverse the placings. Essgee Nics is also penalised after a surprise win at Wolverhampton while French Mix returns from a break but Hooves Like Jagger is respected having finished a close third here on Wednesday.
