It’s difficult to know what Go Sacre Go achieved in finishing third of four at Ascot but that was an improvement on last season’s debut. Moot Court is a possible improver but JET PLANE (NAP) was clear and going well when falling at the last in a handicap at Warwick last month. Earlier efforts at Uttoxeter have worked out well and he can gain compensation today with a clear round. Pulling Stumps may have most scope of the remainder ahead of Samtara and In Our Dreams, though Wrong Shape Ball shaped with promise at Catterick.
