Verdict

Kroy won over track and trip last month but has been beaten by the progressive BREATHOFFRESHAIR subsequently. The latter went on to win an apprentices’ race over course and distance last week and Richard Guest’s charge escapes a penalty as he bids for the hat-trick. A winner at Chelmsford, Fikhaar failed to cope with a 4lb rise last time and it remains to be seen if the other recent winners, Little Miss Lola and Yorkshire Rover, cope any better with a rise in the weights.
