Verdict
CEE JAY boasts plenty of early pace so it's no surprise to see him dropped down to 5f after failing to land the odds over 6f at Wolverhampton last time. He can make amends in this with plenty to spare on handicaps ratings with all but Corridor Kid though the latter is having his first start since June and never threatened in maiden company last year. Dominance got nearest to an easy winner at Wolverhampton on her debut and Silvestre De Sousa takes over the reins for this while Justice Rock finished well ahead of Justice when placed at Lingfield last time.
