VERDICT: Iroko has bundles of ability, but he will need to put an Ascot fall behind him and it might pay to side with Imperial Saint. A step up in trip appeared to suit the seven-year-old, who powered through the fog when making all at Aintree on Boxing Day, taking his record over fences to three from four. A 7lb rise will ask sterner questions of him, as will the rise in grade, but there may well be more in the locker. Soul Icon landed the Desert Orchid from 3lb lower and he ought to remain competitive.
