Verdict

A 5lb rise proved beyond the treble-seeking Day Of The Eagle at Ripon last time but Saint Pois went close off today's mark at Chepstow a week ago and is preferred to stablemate Baltic Prince. Rachel Richardson cannot claim an allowance in this apprentices race but JANAAB drops in class after a decent effort in the Carlisle Bell and he gets the vote having won at Ripon earlier. Illustrious Prince finished just ahead of Day Of The Eagle when third last time and the talented Megan Nicholls' could figure partnering Dialogue.
