Jacbequick is always to be feared around here and is back on the same mark as his last victory on the track. David O'Meara also runs Haraz, who is rarely beaten far but is still a maiden after 18 starts, and Sunglider, who scored here earlier this month but has failed to build on the victory and was well beaten at Redcar on Monday. PALMERSTON (NAP), twice a winner last summer, is returning to his best and only just failed to hold on here earlier in the month. He's now on his highest mark but is running well enough to defy the extra. Zodiakos has run well in two of his three starts this campaign and the assessor has given him a chance.
