Snookered has the highest rating of these and takes a big drop in class but has turned in a couple of shockers recently. Coole Well has had a break and changed stables since winning a couple of sellers last summer with French import Rasango also lacking a recent run. WEEBILL only won a seller restricted to conditional jockeys here in December but did so with the minimum of fuss and Katie O’Farrell can claim 5lb today. He is preferred to stablemate Ginistrelli at the weights.
