In depth

Verdict

STEEL NATIVE has every chance of going in again given he won a higher grade contest over track and trip recently. He has a penalty to defy but won with plenty in hand and gets the vote given today’s opposition inspire little confidence. Atlantic King was placed at Bangor last month but failed to complete subsequently while Misty Mai and Magical Man may both finish closer with recent comeback runs under their belts. Black Narcissus won off today’s mark at Catterick in February but has struggled since.
