After two promising runs so far this conditions race is framed in favour of Mark Johnston's JARROW so we won't oppose the colt while Ramamara looks the main danger and Transfixed is weighted for a challenge. The pick followed a really promising debut, when finding just one too good at Doncaster, with a very easy success over six furlongs at this track in a maiden. The extra yardage should help bring about more improvement and this well bred type should win another race on the way to better things. Ramamara has a bit to find on these terms but ran well in defeat in a warm looking claimer on her latest start. Her jockey is riding well at present but she might just have too much to do. Transfixed is an interesting contender at these weights but looks the yard's second string on jockey bookings while Master Of The Dance was expected to go better last time out but has plenty to find in this line-up. This isn't the greatest contest and Jarrow is open to plenty of improvement and should score well.
