Verdict

It could be worth taking a chance on IAMIMMACULATE, who has made a bright start for this yard and should be all the fitter for his recent Roscommon reappearance. Jp's Express took another step forward when landing a gamble from a number of these here on Friday and must be respected. Into Tomorrow is worth a look at forecast longer odds now handicapping.
