      Verdict

      Hundred Isles won nicely at Chelmsford on his handicap debut though is 7lb higher and upped in class. JEAN BAPTISTE (NAP) is preferred as he went close in this grade at Leicester last week and can go one better with apprentice Mark Crehan, good value for his 5lb allowance, taking over the reins. Russian Virtue is a likely improver with last month’s comeback run under his belt and makes more appeal than Catch My Breath and Copper And Five but Asdaa may do better fitted with blinkers for this.
