In depth

Verdict

Cognac went close at Chester in September and is partnered by William Buick for his handicap debut. Dramatic Sands is 3lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in September while Mon Choix finished runner-up in a lower grade at Lingfield on his reappearance. SCHOOL OF THOUGHT failed to see out the 1m2f at Yarmouth on his comeback but James Tate’s colt can finish much closer back over today’s distance and may be the one to side with. Cosmic Power was due to run at Newmarket yesterday while Exclusively has switched yards and undergone wind surgery since last in action.
