In depth

Verdict

Jazz Master is now 12lb higher than when scoring over track and trip last month while Quest For More failed to cope with an 8lb rise last time for his earlier victory at Leicester. Both Noble Protector and My History came up short on their handicap debuts having won in maiden company before that and Corton Lad hasn't really threatened in three subsequent starts since winning at Hamilton in August. SINGERSONGWRITER is up only 3lb for a recent victory at Ffos Las and Ed Dunlop's filly gets the vote to go in again with further progress on the cards.
