Verdict

A couple of these arrive on the back of course and distance victories. Generous Chief is up 9lb for his win here in December but Debt To Society has the more recent form with a 12-length defeat of Harris last month. Both should go well again but IMPERIAL VIC makes more appeal after finally showing some improvement for a slide down the weights when a close-up third at Market Rasen last time. Harriet Bethell's charge can race off the same mark today and is also preferred to Bennys Well, who made all off a similar mark at Carlisle in February.
