In depth
Verdict
A decent handicap with all four entries running well at present. TRUE JEM has landed two of her last four and impressed when looking to score with something to spare at Haydock. She has a 6lb penalty but, though yet to win on good ground, gets the nod. Haymaker ran a cracker at Pontefract last week when only beaten half-a-length but stays further and this may be a tactical affair. Elsals is progressive but over 7f whereas Regal Envoy, brilliantly placed by Clive Cox to land three of his last five, looks a thorough sprinter, though is upped in grade.
