Verdict
The Princes Poet finished runner-up at Windsor recently though was no match for the winner while Cuban Breeze had been in winning form on the all-weather before struggling in a Listed race here. GINGER JAM (NAP) is another dropping down in class having been drawn high at Beverley on his reappearance but he’ll be sharper for that run and scored off a similar mark over track and trip in September. Airshow is another course and distance winner and landed a double on the all-weather at the start of the year. He can race off a lower mark back on this surface while Hallowed Time won twice when trained in France and debuts for a new yard.
