Verdict
None of these inspire much confidence given Jacbequick has recorded five of six wins so far at Beverley and was placed at the latter track recently. Cricklewood Green, Fieldsman and God Willing are all unproven over this far and Metronomic has plenty to find on these terms. CHANT has every chance at the weights but hasn’t raced since winning over 1m4f at Newcastle last summer. But he may prove good enough on his return and gets a speculative vote.
