Verdict

WESTCOMBE made a promising return when runner-up at Southwell recently and Sir Mark Prescott's still-unexposed son of Ghaiyyath is fancied to take another step forward here and get off the mark. Kathleen Mary is also weighted to have a say and next on the list with Hebridean Nomad, Tatmeen and Bownder all in the picture too.

  1. WESTCOMBE
  2. KATHLEEN MARY
  3. HEBRIDEAN NOMAD
