Verdict

SUPER JULIUS drops down in class for his debut on the all-weather having slipped down the handicap in the last year or so. He gets the nod having finished a close-up fourth at Salisbury last time, though Red Alert passed the post first at the latter track but was demoted to second having drifted into an opponent. Blue Rocks scored over track and trip but was well beaten over 6f last time and Wild Approach never looked like landing a hat-trick when fourth here back in February. Silvestre De Sousa’s presence on Mr Skinnylegs takes the eye and The Daley Express makes his handicap debut having changed yards since last year.
