Verdict

Ede'iffs Elton came here for a handicap over slightly shorter last month and had no problems justifying favouritism. But he's up 9lb and Daryl Jacob takes over from a claimer so he's effectively 12lb higher. EASY BUCKS went up 11lb after completing a Uttoxeter double and couldn't quite cope with the extra at Ffos Las but that was only his fourth start over fences and he can improve again and get back to winning ways. Jurys Out ran a shocker on the latter track when well supported following a good run at Newton Abbot while Mr Palmtree has struggled at the weights since completing a double in November.
