Verdict

EXAMINER has been raised 5lb for his latest win at Lingfield but has already proved superior to today's main rivals. He beat previous winner Jalingo last time and the latter had earlier got the better of subsequent winner War Of Art. Truancy also has over three lengths to find with the selection on recent running so the Willie Haggas-trained gelding looks likely to follow up. Both Sebs Sensei and Scruffy Tramp usually try their best but simply look to high in the handicap at present.
