Verdict

REVELEON showed a big improvement when runner-up at Nottingham on his return to action and handicap debut. Sir Michael Stoute’s charge should be sharper today and can go one better in this modest company. Poetic Affair finished closer at Lingfield on his latest start without threatening the winner while Houlton was beaten only two lengths when fifth at Yarmouth last week. The Jungle Vip was placed in a lowly seller last time and Seaborough may do better stepping up in distance today.
