In depth
Verdict
CONTINGENCY FEE has won in Jersey since scoring over 1m2f here in May. He makes most appeal given Be Fair is still looking for a first win on Turf after finishing runner-up in an amateurs' race here and Windsor second Eltham Palace has yet to win anywhere. Esspeegee is back on a winning mark and preferred to Confils while Kirtling hasn’t raced since last autumn.
