Verdict

Noah Jameel, Josr's Magic and Earl Kraul look the three to concentrate on in this handicap and the vote is given to Earl Kraul. The selection recorded his only career success over this course and distance and he could prove to be the value call in this contest. He was returning from a break here last time so was entitled to need the run and he should now be primed to put his best foot forward. Noah Jameel dead-heated here last time on his return from a short break and this progressive 5-year-old should not be far away again at the finish today. Josr's Magic is back on a handy mark and he shaped with plenty of promise at Lingfield last time when third behind Play Up Pompey. He has to enter calculations along with Little Miss Tara, although she may be vulnerable under her penalty today. A tricky race this which can go the way of Earl Kraul.
