Verdict
Handicaps always looked in mind for THINK TRIGGER so Gary Moore’s gelding was predictably punted when third at Kempton having been available at big odds during some back-end maidens last year. Rivas Rob Roy won here off a 4lb higher mark last term so the bookies will be wary. Jeremiah Johnson has been consistent in similarly low-grade affairs and is respected. Beau Geste has been beaten off similar marks already this term and connections try a step up in distance having failed to pick up prizes over the mile.
