Verdict

Fresh from winning at Ascot having scored at York earlier, DOCUMENTING is only 4lb higher today. This looks less competitive than his latest task and Kevin Frost’s charge should make a bold bid for the hat-trick. Cry Havoc won a decent handicap over today’s trip at Chelmsford when beating Fleeting Prince and can figure again while Vale Of Kent finished fourth over a mile at the same Chelmsford fixture. Ghalyoon has gone close at Doncaster in both starts in handicaps so far and is preferred to Hamish Macbeth, who won over 6f at Yarmouth last week.
