        Verdict

        Bousatet ended last season on the upgrade landing a double at Thirsk and Newcastle. She's 5llb higher on her return. Ryan Moore takes over the reins on Red Refraction and the latter is racing over 7f for the first time since winning at Lingfield last March. Accession won on this card back in 2012 and Great Expectations has a recent run under his belt, but preference goes to topweight AL MUKHDAM. The latter scored at Nottingham on last year's seasonal debut and is fancied to repeat the trick here.
