Verdict

Jonny Ebeneezer might prove good enough to win again here, with possibly Semenovskii and Golden Dixie rated as his biggest dangers. The selection took advantage of a very favourable handicap mark to score at Sandown last time over five furlongs. Given that he is now set a for a ratings hike, connection have elected to try and strike while the iron is hot. His effectiveness at this trip is not in doubt so he looks set to go well again. Semenovskii caught the eye here over five furlongs when staying on late. Given that he has won from a mark of 76, he comes firmly into the reckoning now from a mark of 71 over this six-furlong trip. Golden Dixie ran well from today's mark when second last time, which was much more like his old self, so he could go well too. Many of the others look to have some improvement to find so we are happy to stick with our shortlist, and of these we will opt for Jonny Ebeneezer.
