Most of these can be given a chance. Uncle Jerry finished just in front of Wedding Date with Yolo Again well behind when runner-up over 6f at Kempton while the consistent Sandridge Lad and Dragon Beat have been taking it in turns beating each other and the latter should also have the measure of Southwell winner Scale Force on collateral form. Irish raider Annabelle Rock won over today’s minimum trip in Ireland last month while Kapono has been gelded since last in action having won at Goodwood earlier. LORNA COLE defied a penalty to land the odds at Newcastle last time and gets the vote to show further progress now handicapping.
