Verdict

JEAN BAPTISTE had been narrowly beaten in his two previous starts before scoring at Chester and is just 2lb higher with his young rider able to claim 7lb. Warm Smile has only run on the all-weather and makes her handicap debut but Chips And Rice battled on to dead-heat over this trip at Haydock for which she's been raised 5lb. Aryaah, who started favourite for that latter event, didn't enjoy the soft ground and was well beaten but is better judged on his earlier victories at Bath and Leicester.
