In depth

Verdict

Dark Kris has placed three times but only once on Turf so far. Can't Stop Now finished second at Kempton in March and has claims on his third at Leicester last year. True Believer is interesting making his debut on Turf but was beaten three lengths by Noble Dawn at Wolverhampton in December. VICEREGENT was quite highly tried in the autumn. He’s been gelded over the winter and could be well treated eased in grade on his reappearance. Heavy ground winner Parikarma is probably best of the rest.
