Verdict
Course and distance winner Junior Rip just missed out back here last time though has been raised a further 3lb and OLYMPIC CONQUEROR is preferred. The latter was beaten only a head at Carlisle on last month’s handicap debut and James Fanshawe’s charge has plenty of scope for further progress. Rudy Lewis is another unexposed type who went close over a mile at Thirsk recently while Queen Constantine moves in the opposite direction having placed over longer trips on her last couple of outings. Stormingin may prove best of the rest.
