Verdict

SONGO was returning from more than a year off and a spell of hurdling when winning with a bit in hand at Bath. He's up 5lb but can go in again. What's The Wifi Code likes some give in the ground and has been running well enough though he's never been further than 1m2f. Colinton has no problems with the trip and has won three times already this year and though Carlos Felix is 1-20 he's been narrowly beaten in his last three starts. The consistent Eye Knee, twice a winner at Catterick last year, might just need this after a long absence.
