Verdict

IFITTAKESFOREVER bids for a hat-trick having followed up a win at Southwell with an impressive three-length victory over track and trip. John Butler's charge can shrug off a penalty and get the better of Justice First. The latter opened his account at Lingfield last time and third-placed Zebs Lad boosted the form by winning over 5f here a week ago. Maiden winners Grosmont and Dusty Blue were both well beaten in handicaps last time and the remainder are even harder to fancy on recent form.
