        Verdict

        YOUNG JOHN romped home by six lengths at Leicester last time and carries a penalty, But he’s scored off higher marks in the past and is taken to go in again today given the modest opposition. Dusty makes her debut on the all-weather 2lb higher than when scoring at Brighton in September but Coviglia’s earlier success at Ayr came over a mile. Munfallet can bounce back at any time as he slips further down the weights while Lord Cooper may do better having his second start after wind surgery today.
