In depth
Verdict
A few of these may be better than we have seen with Where's Jeff and Just For Fun just two to note in the ring. Placebo Effect has more obvious claims following two wins in sellers which place him on a fair mark in this. Lady Lintera was noted making late headway last time and she has each-way claims. For the selection we like the look of Excellent Times near the foot of the handicap. She has appeared in need of the experience to date but gets in here on a lowly mark for her in form yard with the step back to 6f expected to see some improvement.
