In depth
Verdict
Comedian Leader has won at Southwell either side of finishing second at Chelmsford and beat Trabajo Detecho on the first of those occasions. Both are penalised today as the latter went on to score over 6f here while Attrazione’s earlier win at Southwell came over a mile. TWILIGHT JAZZ (NAP) has yet to win anywhere but just missed out when beaten a nose at Southwell earlier in the week and Mick Appleby’s filly will start at much shorter odds than 16/1 for this.
