Verdict

HARRY MOLE ran another excellent race in a higher grade at Chester a fortnight ago, doing best of those ridden close up and not beaten far in a blanket finish. He surely won't remain a maiden for much longer and this could be the day he gets his head in front. King of The Jungle and Midnight Lir are a couple of the dangers.

2	As good as ever, taking 5f Beverley handicap (good form) and C&D contest the last twice. Up to a career-high mark but manner of latest success here suggests he can go well in hat-trick bid. 2nd Pick 2 King Of The Jungle (Ire) Jockey: Billy Garritty Trainer: Michael & David Easterby J: Billy Garritty T: Michael & David Easterby	97	-	-	-	14%	Scratched

6	On a long losing run but now a whopping 24 lb lower than last winning mark and caught the eye at Thirsk last time (eased off and lost third close home). Could pop up soon. 3rd Pick 6 Midnight Lir (Ire) Jockey: S. B. Kirrane Trainer: Michael Dods J: S. B. Kirrane T: Michael Dods	96	-	-	-	10%	9/1
