Verdict

Jennie Candlish saddles 3 here and her PERGAMON could prove the answer to this competitive handicap given he returns to the Flat on a potentially good mark judged on his recent improvement over hurdles when a dual winner. Fox Journey has started life really well for Declan Carroll and seems sure to be on the premises, while Solar Pass and Cascade Hall also need considering.
