Verdict

Mark Johnston has good record in this and runs three with the progressive Yorkidding preferred to Chester second Vive Ma Fille and Triple Dip. The former has been raised only 4lb after landing a double with a success at Sandown last time but INDELIBLE INK is still preferred. A rare runner at the track for the Stoute yard, he will appreciate the extra distance having finished a close-up fifth over 1m2f at Sandown on his reappearance. Maiden winners The Lampo Genie and Brotherly Company have struggled in handicaps while the latter's stablemate Cadeau Magnifique and Tommy Docc step up in trip and class for this.
