Joseph Parr’s runners boast an excellent strike-rate around here and ALJARYAAL had both Army Of One and True Romance behind when landing an apprentices’ handicap over 1m4f here three weeks ago. A 3lb rise is not excessive given the three-year-old has been lightly raced to date. This Ones For Fred is 0-10 but has been knocking on the door and a switch to Alan King’s yard won’t harm his prospects. Master Grey has won three times on Turf but has yet to really take to the all-weather.
