JUDICIOUS is progressing well for the underrated Geoff Harker and will enjoy his optimum conditions of ten furlongs on good to firm ground. The Pivotal gelding looks to have more improvement in him and has been hoisted a reasonable 3lb for a latest Beverley success. This represents a slight rise in class but he looks a handicapper on the upgrade and receives the nod. Destiny Of A Diva has a good wins-to-runs ratio and a C&D success to her name this term and looks the main danger, whilst Black Coffee would have claims if transferring decent Polytrack form to turf. Cloudy Start has tumbled down the handicap dramatically but would have every chance if anywhere near to the form he showed for Henry Cecil some time ago.
