Verdict
I Know How has struggled since winning this last year but Intervention has been in good form over 7f and is due to raised 3lb after this. Thaki failed to complete a four-timer when well beaten off today’s mark at Lingfield and Bakr returned a beaten favourite here last time but BLACKJACK remains unexposed. The latter ran well over a longer trip at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut having won a novices race over course and distance earlier and there should be more to come.
