    Verdict

    Varsovian bids for a hat-trick after counting Foie Gras among his victims over track and trip last month. But he found JUNGLE BAY too good over 7f at Kempton back in December and the latter finished runner-up over course and distance in a higher grade sprint than this on his latest start. Jane Chapple-Hyam's charge should come out best with a similar effort. Gung Ho Jack is upped in class after just failing to catch Oscars Journey over track and trip on Tuesday while Steventon Star was well beaten in a claimer last month.
