Verdict
LORD HUNTINGDON failed to get involved in a handicap over track and trip a week ago. He was runner-up here in a maiden race before that and gets another chance. Project Bluebook was placed at Wolverhampton on his recent debut and looks a likely improver while Sabaani finished ahead of Genuine Approval at the same track in December and the latter has since finished much closer over this course and distance. Il Sassicaia doesn't make much appeal on breeding though Marco Botti's newcomers are always worth a second glance in the betting.
