Verdict
MOLLY JONES has been back on a winning mark for some time and finally showed some improvement when beaten only a head by Pharoh Jake over C&D last time. The latter has since boosted the form with another win and Derek Haydn Jones' three-year-old is fancied to confirm running with Chjimes, Imaginary Diva and Miss Polly Plum. It's hard to make a case for any of the remainder given their current poor form though Volcanic Dust will be taking advantage of her slide down the weights before long.
