In depth

Verdict

BIT OF A JIG had an off-day in a competitive novices handicap at Ayr last time. But he'd landed a double before that and can return to winning ways in this company. Financial Climate never looked like catching Samingarry when third at Chepstow recently and still has a bit to find with the selection on today's terms despite a conditional's allowance. Imperial Vic is preferred if back to his best as he's slipped down the weights and handles fast ground.
