In depth
Verdict
Plucky Dip and Jan's Joy were engaged in the 5.00 at Yarmouth yesterday and Mr Potter in the 6.10 at Kempton. All three would have chances if turning out again and the results should be monitored. PAPA DELTA has won Class 7 handicaps here and at Lingfield in recent weeks and though taking a slight rise in grade from 5lb higher looks the best option in a tricky race to evaluate. Nuzha was in decent form over the minimum in mid-summer and was returning from a break when beaten at Lingfield last month while Black Truffle has amassed eight victories on the all-weather including over this track and trip.
