Verdict

Declared Interest ended last year with a victory over 1m2f at Chelmsford in October. She placed over today’s shorter trip at Ascot before that but AHDAB (NAP) has the more recent form. The latter scored at Yarmouth last month with a subsequent winner back in third and is only 2lb higher for this. Song of The Isles won a claimer in soft going last time while Love Dreams landed a seller on the all-weather earlier but Magnetised is preferred fitted with headgear today with a recent reappearance at Windsor under his belt.
