    Verdict

    The progressive JAHBATH defied a penalty last time to land a double in novice company at Kempton. He’s expected to handle the Fibresand on his handicap debut given the Haggas yard have plenty of runners at this venue and boast an impressive strike-rate with their three-year-old representatives. Coolagh Forest is another handicapping for the first time having won over 7f at Wolverhampton earlier and is preferred to the returning Balance Of Power, a winner at Newcastle but beaten in a handicap at Ripon when last in action in September. Whenapoet scored over track and trip last month but in lowly Class 6 company and has also been raised 9lb.
