Verdict

Derek Duval faces a more difficult task having won at Brighton last month but Lunar Jet scored in this grade at Newbury on his reappearance and makes more appeal. Simoon could figure now handicapping for the first time and is preferred to Windsor runner-up Rotherwick and it would be no surprise to see Garrick thereabouts at the finish having gone close off a similar mark here back in November. But SHANGHAI SILVER has shown good progress stepped up to 1m2f on the all-weather with wins at Chelmsford and Newcastle and he gets the nod to continue winning ways having beaten a subsequent winner on his latest start.
