Verdict

TRIBAL WISDOM, a gelded son of Frankel, didn’t make his debut until earlier this month but ran a nice race at Newmarket and should go one better here. Carlisle winner Pretty Bouquet has to concede him 2lb but should be placed at least again. Laatansa showed promise last season but lacks a recent run while Wandering Rocks might enjoy more luck when tried in handicaps.
