Verdict
Late Romantic won at Kelso back in February and missed an engagement at Ayr yesterday. Sam's Adventure returns to action 8lb higher than when successful at Uttoxeter in March while Fortified Bay missed out on a hat-trick off today’s mark at Doncaster. Sojourn will relish the heavy going and should be winning again this season but Lough Derg Farmer was still well beaten when third in this last year. But VERY FIRST TIME (NAP) has a comeback run at Perth under his belt and dropping back down in class today, Dan Skelton’s charge looks up to winning off his current mark. Dino Boy has switched yards and is upped in class while Debece showed progressive form last year but returns from a lengthy absence.
