Verdict

MERRIJIG remains pretty low-mileage for a 6-y-o and took his form up a notch when making a winning return at Chelmsford 4 weeks ago, by ½ length from re-opposing Clansman. Meeting his old rival on even more favourable terms on this occasion, he promises to do better still and can land the hat-trick.
