Rich Harvest is taken to win again with both Just Jimmy and Spin Again worth noting. The selection was seen to good effect when breaking his maiden tag over course and distance last time out. He was a generous price that day and was dropped into selling company for the first time. He was bought after the race by David Evans who has his string of horses in great form at present and although this is a step back up in grade we feel there is further improvement still to come. Just Jimmy is the stables other runner and has plenty of experience on his side. He won at this track over a furlong less in May and has since run with credit off a four pound higher mark. He looks capable of another big run so the market may be the best place to look. Spin Again will be another danger having performed well at Kempton last time out and is one to note, but for the winner we return to Rich Harvest.
