Verdict

This looks wide open and it could well pay to side with the sole 3-y-o in the line up INTRUSIVELY. His comeback effort at Newcastle (following 10 months off) contained definite promise last week, not least with a view to stepping back up in trip and he can take full advantage of his handy weight-for-age allowance. Royal Zabeel had excuses on account of the soft ground latest and he's of interest back in a handicap. Gorak and Northern Express are just a couple of others to consider.
