In depth
Verdict
Fujin returned an easy winner over track and trip last time but has been raised 8lb for his trouble. JACOB'S PILLOW makes more appeal despite only winning a seller here last month given he scored by five lengths on that occasion and can race off the same mark today. There was little between Spowarticus and Great Expectations when they filled the places behind Sartori over track and trip last time while course and distance winner Razin' Hell also has a shout off his current mark.
