Verdict

Whiskey Junction just failed to catch the winner at Wolverhampton last month and will be bang there at the finish with a similar effort today. REGINALD CLAUDE also scored at Wolverhampton in November and is fancied to go in again back over today's trip as his latest modest effort came over 7f. Putin went close over 7f at this track last time and makes most appeal of the remainder who arrive laregly out of sorts, though the likes of Mr Optimistic and Kings 'n Dreams have tumbled down the weights.
