This looks an open affair with Mostly and Shamaroon returning to action for powerful yards. The former has had wind surgery since last in action at Newmarket and the latter was beaten over track and trip on his handicap bow. Lord Neidin is another with claims on his comeback having been gelded over the winter but AHDAB (NAP) has a recent outing under his belt. He finished runner-up at Lingfield despite failing to get a clear run in the closing stages and normal luck in-running should see him confirm running with Tintoretto and go one better. Nick Vedder is upped in class while Kondratiev Wave is back up in trip.
