Verdict

A change of scenery looks to have rejuvenated JORVIK PRINCE (NAP) having made a winning debut for Mick Appleby’s yard over 5f here last week. He remains on a winning mark despite the penalty and can confirm running with second-placed Kyllukey, who finished over three lengths behind. Englishman ended a barren spell with a victory at Lingfield last month while Mercers went close at the same track last time with Invisible Storm back in fourth and can also figure but Under Curfew’s recent placed effort here came in maiden company.
