Verdict

Captain Lars won a lower grade sprint over track and trip recently but had earlier found Alsvinder too good at Kempton and the latter has been raised 4lb having been beaten by Verne Castle at Chelmsford in September along with Corinthia Knight. Teruntum Star went close over today’s trip at Nottingham last month but has done most of his winning over 6f and GRACIOUS JOHN (NAP) is fancied to reverse Nottingham running with Kevin Ryan’s charge. The latter has subsequently run well in Listed company here and is fancied to make another bold bid given he’s won both previous renewals of this including off a higher mark in 2016.
