Verdict

Al Sail faded in the closing stages over 7f at Kempton on his debut and this shorter trip should suit. But ARZAAK’s latest second over track and trip looks stronger form and Chris Dwyer’s charge can open his account with a similar effort. Porto Ferro ran well enough at Kempton on his first start for new connections but Lingfield third Roman Navigator is less exposed. Zilza disappointed last time and Prufrock has plenty to find on these terms but the newcomers Clean Cut and Fille The Force are both related to winners.
