WIZARD D’AMOUR ran well off this mark at York on his handicap debut and there should be plenty more to come having only his fifth career start. Sir Benedict is much more exposed and is having a first run for a new yard but Redcar winner Dajraan shouldn’t be far away bidding to go one better than over track and trip last month. Sergeant Tibbs wasn’t entirely disgraced making his Turf debut at Ascot after a break and should strip fitter today.
