Verdict
Jack The Farmer’s frustrating run of placed efforts continued with a second at Uttoxeter but HOLLOW RON came good at the same track last month. The latter can effectively race off a lower mark if a conditional’s allowance is taken into account and has the scope for further improvement. Robbie Dazzler is not badly treated on previous form if rediscovering his best and is preferred to Kimberley Eve while Top Man will be sharper for a comeback run at Warwick.
