In depth
Verdict
Both Jumby and Perotto placed behind the progressive Creative Force here on their respective latest starts. The former makes most appeal of that pair with William Buick taking over the reins while the latter finished in front of third-placed BICKERSTAFFE. But Karl Burke’s colt is fancied to reverse running as he can race off the same mark today and will handle any cut in the ground. First Folio has been raised 11lb for winning at Yarmouth and Thirsk winner Barney's Bay has a 9lb hike to contend with but Seven Brothers could go well having scored at Doncaster on his reappearance. Jadwal is upped in class but makes most appeal of the remainder.
