        Verdict

        Tadabeer scored over track and trip three weeks ago and is upped in class off a higher mark for this. Aegaeus won at Lingfield on his latest start in November and his defeat of Harry Buckle looks more impressive in hindsight as the latter won four times over the winter. Ed Dunlop's charge looks a genuine contender, but another chance goes to top weight KAAFEL. He drops down a couple of grades after finishing a respectable sixth to Robin Hoods Bay over course and distance and a repeat should see him bang there at the finish. Sondeduro could prove best of the rest on his reappearance.
