Jacbequick is a free-going sort but should enjoy himself around this sharpish track and can go well despite top weight. Magna Cartor has raced over further since joining Richard Newland but cheekpieces could sharpen him up. Working Class is not without a chance but it’s more difficult to make a case for Collodi and First Of Never in this company and Lyndsays Lad looks one of his stable’s lesser lights. GREEN OR BLACK had wind surgery after finishing third at Huntingdon last month. This is his time of year and he’s dropped to a lenient mark.
