Verdict
Electrician is clear at the weights but ran nowhere near his official rating in a claimer last time and MR KNIGHTLEY arrives in much better form. He won cosily over 7f here last week with The Noble Ord well beaten and a follow-up looks on the cards. Amis Reunis can be given a chance with a 7lb claimer taking over the reins but it doesn't bode well to see the lightly-raced pair Veyepea and Balmoral Castle dropping down to this level so quickly.
