    Verdict

    This is a tight-looking handicap on paper but the three-year-old EAGLE COURT (NAP) has improved out of all recognition since tackling soft ground and can overcome a further 5lb rise and step up in grade to complete the hat-trick. Lunar Jet is ending the season in fine form and appears to have the beating of Aasheq on Newbury running. Cockalorum certainly wasn’t winning out of turn at Pontefract and Al Erayg was runner-up off this mark over track and trip just eight days ago so is also respected.
