Verdict

Consistency is a rare attribute for one at this level but SOMETHING LUCKY usually runs his race and that could be good enough in this. Beaten only a head at Chelmsford last week, Mick Appleby’s charge finished in front of both Jorvik Prince and Red Stripes and can go one better. Berryessa is another with claims on her second at Chelmsford, though that was back in January, while Invincible Ridge won here in November and is preferred to the returning Zamjar.
