      Verdict

      The Gosden powerhouse runs two with MAIN STREET looking first choice on his success over a mile here in October. He’s also entered in a Listed race at the weekend so it’s reasonable to assume he’s improved over the winter and is preferred to stable companion and newcomer Guardsman. Roundabout Kitten is another carrying a penalty having won at Lingfield earlier and then beaten in a handicap subsequently while Prabeni, Temur Khan and Refrain all represent leading yards with the latter preferred to stablemate Allied.
