Verdict
Discay has run well in both subsequent starts since scoring at Wetherby in December though is now 8lb higher. But JURYS OUT escapes a penalty for winning a conditionals’ race at Carlisle a week ago and Venetia William’s charge should go close again in this company and gets the vote. King Cool faced a tougher task than this at Newbury recently but had won at Kempton before that and can figure while Duffy Allen should be sharper for last month’s return to action and makes most appeal of the remainder.
