Twice a winner at Stratford last month, Jamacho will need to defy a further 7lb rise to complete the hat-trick. GLENDUN also won at Stratford last time and was second over this course and distance earlier. He’s also been raised 7lb but is getting 9lb from his likely market rival. Carry On wasn’t given a hard time on his reappearance at Stratford and will strip fitter today while Avarchie has been lightly raced. Panko is preferred to Dream Machine of the others.
