Verdict

Confab has no easy task on his debut while City Wanderer finished tailed off at Newbury on his introduction. But the remaining trio can all be given a chance including the returning Deference, placed at Kempton in November. Dominus ran well at Leicester on his comeback and came up against a potentially smart newcomer when runner-up over 6f at Chelmsford last week but QUTOB will be sharper for last month’s placed effort in a decent maiden over today’s trip at Newmarket and Charlie Hills’ colt may prove the one to side with.
