Verdict

LONGACRE SQUARE showed improvement to make a winning start in handicaps at this course last time and, while he was all out, there may well be better still and Jordan Gainford claiming 4 lb against his peers looks significant. Cousin Harry also warrants consideration, while Jazz Ranger deserves a mention on the back of a positive reappearance.
