Verdict
Kajaki won this last year and is 6lb lower but Iolani hasn’t won in two years and isn’t getting any younger. Cabrakan hasn’t been running badly, however, and is back on a winning mark but Irish import DREAM JET put a modest first run for Brian Ellison behind him when taking a maiden at Stratford last month and has plenty of scope. Imperial Data wasn’t winning out of turn at Kelso three weeks ago and looks the pick of the remainder ahead of the frustrating VE Day.
