In depth
Verdict
Jazri failed to cope under a penalty last time having narrowly beaten Weld Arab here before that with Nouvelle Ere further behind. Mops Angel and Koreen have both been thereabouts of late while Lingfield winner Le Deluge ran well again at Southwell on his latest start. WHAT A DANDY dropped back to a mile for his last couple of outings but went close at Lingfield the last time he raced over today's trip and Jim Boyle's charge may well go one better in this.
