Verdict

TURQUINO hasn't been seen to best effect in handicaps to date but the combination of a longer trip and drop in class may see him record a third victory in 5 career starts. Last time out winner Gravitas is feared most now stepping up in distance, with William Buick an eye-catching jockey on handicap debut, while Nap Hand may relish this stiffer test having been unsuited by a slowly-run 10f at Windsor last time.
