      Verdict

      Emirates Knight and Jersey Wonder make their handicap debuts having won novice races at Thirsk and Wolverhampton respectively. The former steps up in trip along with Pour Me A Drink, who made a winning start in handicaps over a mile at Haydock on soft ground. Both Albert Finney and Sameem won over today’s trip earlier and were beaten less than a length on their latest outings but FOX PREMIER (NAP) is worth sticking with. Andrew Balding’s Frankel colt won a decent Class 2 contest at Chelmsford on his reappearance and further progress is expected in this.
