Early promise in Jack's A Legend seems to have evaporated so it’s difficult to look beyond RED MAPLE, who beat a much more competitive field at Worcester earlier in the month and is only 5lb higher. Drag Race is going backwards while Jack Yeats looks thoroughly exposed. Overtougeorge’s latest second at Stratford came in a very modest seller and he is 10lb out of the handicap.
