Verdict
Esprit De Midas should be thereabouts off his current mark but Abi Scarlet has done her winning over 6f on the Fibresand. Wolverhampton winner Emkanaat has looked high enough in the weights since that victory and Jungle Bay is 7lb higher and upped in class having won at Lingfield last month. AFKAR scored over today's trip at Yarmouth before finishing third over a mile at this track and he gets another chance today ahead of Hurricane Lady and Avonmore Star, both placed on their latest outings.
