Verdict
Gentlemen has gone close again since scoring over track and trip earlier in the month when BREAKING RECORDS was beaten less than a length and Kodiline finished fourth. But Hugo Palmer’s charge was having his first start since July on that occasion and is fancied to reverse running today re-opposing on much better terms with an apprentice’s allowance further helping his cause. Mayyasah returned a losing favourite at Kempton recently though finished in front of Black Isle Boy while Jellmood gets an extra piece of headgear added having also placed at the same Kempton meeting. Human Nature missed out when favourite over 6f at Lingfield but won over today’s trip earlier while recent winners Full Intention and Roland Rocks step up in class with the latter due to run at Newcastle yesterday.
