Verdict
Speed Steed scored over course and distance last time and should be thereabouts with a similar effort but PARTY PALACE is just preferred. The latter is a winner without a penalty having won an apprentices race over track and trip on her latest start and also makes more appeal than another recent course winner in Tram Express. White Deer usually finds at least one too good but should be thereabouts once again though Jezza showed signs of a resurgence last time having dropped down the weights and he looks a genuine threat.
