Verdict

Bollin Joan bids for a third course victory and has already won at York this year while Ridgeway arrives off the back of a victory on Turf at Lingfield. After making a winning reappearance on Tapeta, KETTLE HILL was far too keen on his handicap debut at Redcar. This step up in distance should suit and he is taken to recoup losses ahead of a trio of three-year-olds headed by Leopardo.
