Verdict
Harlequin Rock beat Beverley Bullet at Pontefract in October and has won again since at Southwell. Jassur is now 14lb higher than when scoring over a longer trip at Chelmsford but Ada Misobel has slid back down the weights since placed in a seller at Catterick last season. SEA OF UNCERTIANTY was also runner-up in plating company in heavy going at Redcar last month. This isn't any tougher and Mike Appleby's charge should be in the mix with a similar effort.
