Verdict

After 17 months off (had a wind op), SYMBOL OF LIGHT showed improved form on his stable debut when a close fourth at Newcastle and he could still have more to offer upped in trip. He is taken to get the better of Akhu Najla, who also may yet do better over this longer distance with blinkers applied. La Yakel is another who enters calculations.
