Verdict

Escape To Glory and Jarrow were both winners last year and could figure if far enough forward on their first starts since September. Captain Scooby is beginning to look in the handicapper's grip and The Happy Hammer has done all his winning over further so the vote goes to LASTKINGOFSCOTLAND. He had a below-par Mambo Spirit well behind when scoring over today's distance at Kempton last time and, though he's stepping up a grade today, this doesn't look any tougher and Conor Dore's charge is taken to go in again.
