      Verdict

      Signcastle City didn’t do a lot wrong on his reappearance at Haydock and Stage Show could be interesting receiving weight all round. Prince of Zenda placed on all three starts on the all-weather last year but Classic Speed has gone backwards since his debut run behind Chaldean at Newbury. DOCKLANDS, just beaten on good to soft on debut at Haydock last year, had little more than an exercise canter at Kempton last month and looks to have plenty of scope, which is probably more than you can say about Bussento and Ludo's Landing.
