Verdict

New Leyf landed a course and distance double in February and is not easily dismissed back over 6f but another chance goes to GUNG HO JACK. He rattled-up a hat-trick at the start of the year and can race off the same mark as when runner-up at Chelmsford last week. Lupo D'Oro is another with claims on his latest second at Lingfield while Castorienta will have come on for her recent comeback and is preferred to Only Ten Per Cent, well beaten despite finishing runner-up on his latest start.
