    Verdict

    FORESEE can win again for a stable that’s going great guns at present. Jockey Tom Marquand also has an excellent strike-rate on this track but this will be his first ride on Tony Carroll’s gelding, who scored in a higher grade last time at Epsom when Artic Nel was only fifth. Safarhi failed to land the odds on Tapeta last time but has claims on an earlier second at Doncaster while Howardian Hills won at Kempton 12 days ago, though is 0-8 on Turf. Rock'n Gold and Ali The Hunter have each-way claims at bigger odds.
