Verdict
Lager Time improved for the step up to 6f here on his recent handicap debut and should go well again but TARTAN BLUE gets the nod. The latter faced a much tougher task on her first attempt at handicapping when fourth behind dual winner Saga Lout. Third-placed Outbid has subsequently won and Robert Cowell's filly can make the most of the drop in class. Holding Fast is hard to fancy dropping back to 5f and Jubilini has shown nothing so far.
