      Verdict

      It took a while for the penny to drop with IMPORTANT MESSAGE (NAP) on his debut at Wolverhampton but he was staying on nicely at the finish and can go one better here if handling the slight drop in distance. Jakodima looks to have improved over the winter judged on his fourth at Newmarket and he's preferred to the frustrating Alnashama and Nottingham third Nice Thoughts, who may benefit from a step up in trip and a switch to handicap company.
