First division of a decent little handicap with a few of these appealing as likely winners. Tigerskin on his second run back from wind surgery again without headgear and under a penalty for his Newmarket win does have to prove himself again although he did score back-to-back wins last year. Funny Man from the in-form O’Meara yard may just find he needs this outing over a trip that trip that looks on the short side but both BLUE MEDICI and The Dancing Poet should come on for their reappearance runs. The former of that duo endured a rather luckless run last time and with the master of Haydock – Richard Kingscote – on board is taken to open his 2020 account.
