Verdict
Just In Time looked the likely winner at Southwell last month but failed to keep a straight line in the closing stages and was caught by Author's Dream. The latter has now won seven times on the all-weather and can figure again but Military Two Step finished second of only four runners at Wolverhampton on her reappearance, though should be sharper today. Stamina is present in the pedigree of RESUMPTION and, having just missed out on a hat-trick when beaten at Newcastle last time, he gets another chance upped in trip with Adam Farragher’s 5lb allowance helping his cause. Chase The Dollar is upped in class but better is expected from Justus at this lower level.
