Verdict
Idol Deputy is 10lb higher than when scoring here under today's apprentice in December and Marksbury will find this tougher than the division of an amateur race he won at this track last time. STAMP DUTY won the second division of the same race on his latest start but, given he was racing off much higher marks at this time last year, he looks capable of following up despite a 4lb rise. Join Up has a bit to find with the selection on latest running and Warden Bond's winning run came to end off today's mark here a week ago.
