Verdict

Dubai Icon is penalised for winning at Nottingham in October last year while Equal Sum also returns to action having won at Wolverhampton in December. That should give the edge to KARISOKE, who faded close home when third at Beverley on last month’s debut but will be sharper for the outing and represents a yard in flying form. The remainder with experience have plenty to find but the Frankel colt It Had To Be You is a half-brother to a Group 2 winner while fellow newcomer Detective is related to host of winners and both are worth noting representing powerful yards.
