Verdict

Tarboosh is only a pound higher than when landing this 12 months ago and this is his time of year. He was cantering all over Copper Knight at Musselburgh last time and, though the runner-up is 5lb better off, should confirm that running. But it may be significant that Paul Midgley has booked Paul Hanagan for stablemate ORVAR, who is also a course and distance winner and had several of these behind when third last time at York behind a couple of improving three-year-olds. A Momentofmadness came within half-a-length of a second successive victory in the Portland here last month so is another to consider while Danzeno never seems to run a bad race. Makanah is definitely worth a market check and Came From The Dark is making giant strides so also goes on the shortlist.
