With Hindsight recorded one of his rare wins at Southwell last time but Kempton winner Youm Jamil failed to cope with an 8lb rise back at the same track when finding Ever Yours too good. That was the latter's first win in 16 attempts and she carries 6lb extra but Hidden Asset is usually thereabouts off today's mark. Jonnie Skull does his winning on the Turf nowadays, so the vote goes to BAILEYS EN PREMIER, a close-up fourth behind Putin in a blanket-finish over course and distance a week ago.
