Verdict

Indian Pursuit bids for a hat-trick carrying 6lb extra for last week’s success over track and trip. Capla Demon won at Leicester before beaten off today’s mark at Ffos Las and IT’S ALL A JOKE gets another chance in this. The latter won at Dundalk earlier this year and finished runner-up over today’s distance at Kempton on his first start for Archie Watson. Dreamboat Annie has been thereabouts lately and is preferred to Blessed To Empress.
