Verdict

JURANCON continued the positive start to his career when making a successful handicap debut at Newbury on final outing last season and, with this step up in trip promising to suit, he is taken to add to his tally on return. Heading the list of dangers is French Ship, who was a ready winner at this course last month, with Kap Boy and Royal Infantry also in the mix.

  1. JURANCON (FR)
  2. FRENCH SHIP
  3. KAP BOY (FR)
