NORTHERN EXPRESS wasn't at his best when last seen at York in May but he's been given a short break since and, having previously highlighted he's on a workable mark when runner-up over this trip at that venue, he's fancied to get back on track equipped with a first-time hood. Shawaamekh arrives in good order and is feared, ahead of Praxeology and King of Tonga.
