Verdict

Victory March was in good form at the end of last year and is starting to slip down the weights again. Oisin Murphy keeps faith with Wolverhampton winner First Charge, who has only been raised 4lb. This longer trip is within his range and Myboymax won over 1m6f at Wolverhampton in December. Prince Abu is a course and distance winner who was beaten under a length over 1m4f here earlier in the month but it’s about time JUBILEE GIRL (NAP) was getting her head back in front with this intermediate distance expected to suit Karl Burke’s filly.
