Verdict
JUMBO PRADO is taken to gain a hat-trick of course and distance wins. He beat higher rated horses than these in a claimer last time so should be bang there at the finish. Grey Destiny can race off the same mark as when third here last month and Little Lord Nelson went close at Chelmsford in February. Marmalad was placed off a similar mark here at the end of last year and Spirit Of Gondree had been thereabouts at Chelmsford before a poor effort on his latest start.
