Verdict

A chance is taken on KAYF ADVENTURE to reverse the form with Sheriff Garrett from last time and come out on top having been eased a further 5 lb in the weights. The latter should give another good account, while Methag's best efforts entitle her to plenty of respect off her current mark of 104.
