JAI HANUMAN continues to defy the handicapper and looks worth sticking with until beaten. He landed a hat-trick of wins over a mile with last month’s success at Kempton and there could be more to come over this extra distance. Chikoko Trail found the selection too good last time but Sir Gnet scored over track and trip recently having earlier finished behind Subliminal here. The latter has gone close again since and Pendo wasn’t beaten far when third over course and distance on his latest start though hasn’t had much luck with the draw today.
