      Verdict

      Lastkingofscotland dead-heated at Brighton in the week and as he was well clear of the rest should still run well under a penalty but DANCING JEST looks better treated. Racing off bottom weight Rae Guest's charge is only 2lb worse off than when winning at Lingfield three starts ago and on that should be winning races under this revised mark. Gojeri is unexposed and seems to be on an upward curve but now has it to prove off this rating after being well held from a lighter load last time. Golden Rock is back to his last winning mark so has to be given a chance but Dancing Jest is possibly on the light side in the handicap.
