Verdict

Mark Johnston had numerous entries for this Nursery and relies on King's Account, who is taken to beat Stancomb Wills and Bushing Russian. King's Account and Stancomb Wills met in a maiden at Beverley last time, when the selection came out on top by a comfortable two and a half lengths. The runner up has a seven pound pull in the weights so should get a lot closer today, however King's Account galloped on really well and should just have his measure. The best of the bottom-weights could be Blushing Russian who showed improvement on his previous two starts when finishing third in a Thirsk maiden, he is certainly of interest off this mark on his handicap debut. Robinzal and Velveteen Rabbit have both disappointed on occasions but can be given chances on their best form, but King's Account won with something up his sleeve last time and looks set to follow up.
