Verdict

Jet Setter is getting closer to landing that elusive first win and finished second at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago. Not Now Nadia will be winning before long and finished just ahead of BACKINANGER over 5f last month. But the latter has since been placed over track and trip and, with an apprentice’s 7lb allowance in his favour today, Kevin Ryan’s charge can open his account. Mr Strutter is usually thereabouts without threatening but The Bard's Advice could go well dropping back down to 6f for her handicap debut.
