Verdict

NAVAJO INDY was only beaten a length when fourth at Kempton and the first two home have both subsequently won. Highlands Legacy finished runner-up at Ffos Las last month while I'm A Lumberjack ran well here on his debut without threatening the winner and Strutter is fitted with a hood on his reappearance. Histrionic and Ryan's Rocket are point-to-point winners while Groovy Blue, Guard The Moon and King Of The Road are preferred of the newcomers.
