Verdict
Amaretto is a consistent type over the trip in this grade. Jumping Jack will have the assistance of Simon Walker and strip fitter today but Serena Brotherton’s mount Gawdawpalin appears out of sorts. ME TOO NAGASAKI hasn’t been disgraced in two previous runs over this sort of trip and, importantly, also handles soft going. Pat Millman is a talented amateur and the pair could be a winning combination. Grange Walk may be best of the rest.
