        Verdict

        Finelcity bids for hat-trick of course wins but is upped a further 7lb. Alejandro went close at Chelmsford when ahead of Plucky Dip and Jammy Guest while Redcar winner Jordan Sport has a shout back over 7f but hasn’t raced since June. Frenchman is penalised for scoring over 6f at Newcastle last week and the progressive RIPOLL is 5lb higher after winning over track and trip. But Sylvester Kirk’s charge found another gear in the closing stages last time and hasn’t stopped improving yet on that evidence so gets the vote.
