Verdict

After a ready success at Lingfield in January, KNOCKBREX had excuses when unable to land the odds at the same course 6 days later, so he is taken to bounce back to winning ways with the return to this longer trip to suit. Plage de Havre has been progressing well with racing and is feared most, with Gaassee also considered.
