Verdict
FLAMING RIB placed at Ascot on his handicap debut and Pierre-Louis Jamin takes 5lb off his back today. He gets the vote ahead of Bin Hayyan, who only won a maiden at Ayr recently. Lethal Levi is another maiden winner but finished second of five runners when upped to 7f in a handicap at Catterick last time while The Dunkirk Lads returned the surprise 40/1 winner of a novices race at Carlisle earlier in the month.
