Verdict
Jupiter Express finished in front of Silver Dollar when scoring over 7f here earlier in the month and the latter was due to run at Kempton yesterday. Kensington Agent also drops down in trip after going close at Kempton but BIG IMPACT scored over course and distance in November and has slipped back down to a lower mark. He gets the vote reunited with winning partner Ryan Sexton.
