CASTLE COVE arrives with strong claims on the back a Chester triumph on last month's reappearance and handicap debut. The son of Camelot beat the reopposing Grey Cuban in convincing style and is taken to defy a hike in the weights. The latter has subsequently franked that form, but the less-exposed Jolly Jack Tar may prove a bigger danger having returned the taking winner at Chelmsford last month. Defiance and last year's winner Take Heart are others to note. |
A strong race where an unexposed pair at the bottom of the weights in JOLLY JACK TAR and Castle Cove. They are both 2-4 and the form of the latter's latest win has been boosted by the re-opposing runner up Grey Cuban so he is hugely respected. The former is marginally preferred on his turf debut though following an impressive AW win and is entitled to come on for that outing which was his first of the year. He gets the verdict ahead of Irish raider Masoun who took a strong contest last time and is fairly treated for his hat trick bid. |

They are both 2-4 and the form of the latter's latest win has been boosted by the re-opposing runner up Grey Cuban so he is hugely respected. The former is marginally preferred on his turf debut though following an impressive AW win and is entitled to come on for that outing which was his first of the year. He gets the verdict ahead of Irish raider Masoun who took a strong contest last time and is fairly treated for his hat trick bid. |

Well backed when landing a handicap by 3 1/4l off 85 at Chelmsford last time; should come on for that; top course jockey; 2-4 in short career; big chance if taking to turf |

CASTLE COVE arrives with strong claims on the back a Chester triumph on last month's reappearance and handicap debut. The son of Camelot beat the reopposing Grey Cuban in convincing style and is taken to defy a hike in the weights. The latter has subsequently franked that form, but the less-exposed Jolly Jack Tar may prove a bigger danger having returned the taking winner at Chelmsford last month. Defiance and last year's winner Take Heart are others to note. |

Probably needed race down the field in a handicap at Epsom most recent; usually held up; significant jockey booking; off a short-break; inconsistent; vulnerable in this grade |
