Jems Bond was winning for the first time since 2019 when scoring over 6f here while Aquamas was placed yet again when third at Southwell still looking for a first success. ENGLISH SPIRIT is also a maiden but wasn’t beaten far when fourth over today’s trip at Kempton and may prove good enough off his current mark in a weak race. Rocket Rod posted a better effort last time having slipped down the weights and is preferred to Bobby Joe Leg of the rest.
