Verdict

Tom Lacey's progressive novice TUNE IN A BOX looks more than capable of maintaining his unbeaten record in handicaps, a 7 lb penalty for last week's Wetherby success appealing as more than manageable given his ongoing improvement. Balkardy may find one too good for the fifth start in succession, with Slip Road also considered having proven he retains ability last time.
