Verdict

Despite a big weight, YUFTEN (NAP) is well clear on official ratings and can follow up his victory in similar company here in November on his first start for John Feane. Rated 105 after winning the 2016 Balmoral Handicap, he easily beat tonight's rival Hasselnott and should have no problems doing so again. Georgian Bay was beaten four lengths by the latter in November and is no better off though he's been running well but Sheisdiesel's victory here in similar company here was back in May and, like the remainder, she has a mountain to climb on official figures.
