Vanity Affair is preferred of the older horses while Abrag showed some ability over 7f at Kempton on his debut. But WAKE UP HARRY was beaten only a neck by a horse rated 81 over today’s trip at Kempton on his introduction and normal progress should see him off the mark. Bodroy and Jack Of Trades finished closer on their respective latest starts though neither threatened while Pop Favorite is the first foal of a winner on the all-weather and is preferred to stablemate Lockerbie.
