Verdict

JAZRI made most and just held on when stepped up to 1m3f at Warwick and this trip should prove ideal so he's taken to defy a 6lb rise in the weights. Mercury Magic , who is bred to be a sprinter, has only raced at 6f so far so he's taking a massive hike in trip. Gift Of Rain finished last of four on his reappearance at Wolverhampton but his best run came on his only start on Turf. Improvized made a successful debut at Brighton on soft ground but has shown very little subsequently and the remainder all have questions to answer.
