Breeding suggests THE JUGGLER should stay today's trip having finished second over 7f in soft ground at Salisbury in October. New Abbey Angel won over 1m2f at Lingfield on his handicap debut but is 7lb higher as he races on Turf for the first time. Tessellate was a well-beaten second in a seller on the all-weather last time but Rockliffe was placed at Chelmsford in between his more usual modest efforts. I'm Ready, Denmead and Ochos Rio are all open to improvement now handicapping for the first time.
