Verdict
BORN TO FINISH has been raised only 3lb despite comfortably beating Nezar at Kempton last month. He can go in again and also confirm latest running with Cappananty Con and Danecase. Captain Lars picked up a claimer over track and trip a fortnight ago and is not badly treated if back in a handicap while Aleef slips further down the weights and it’s only a matter of time before he takes advantage. Inexes won off today’s mark at Pontefract earlier but has yet to score on the all-weather.
