    Verdict

    All four of these won their latest starts and Global Academy and Bungee Jump bid for hat-tricks. But both have a hike in the weights to contend with and so does Helvetian. The latter won easily at Kempton a fortnight ago but had earlier found COUNT OTTO too good over track and trip. Amanda Perrett’s charge is only 4lb higher today and can confirm superiority on better terms.
