Verdict
Kingston Kurrajong finished a couple of lengths ahead of Crimewave when only beaten a short-head by Tell William at Newbury and Production ran well for fifth at the same track a day earlier and is now tried in cheekpieces. MON CHOIX (NAP) won as he liked at Windsor on Monday, beating an in-form rival by almost eight lengths. That was a huge step forward and he should be capable of defying a penalty in this slightly better race. Coverham was fifth back on Turf here last time but that was over 7f, which is probably his best trip nowadays. Quarry Beach is now 0-15 but Prize Fighting has only run twice and has considerable scope.
