Verdict

Most of these are still improving and can be given a chance. Ryan Moore partners recent Wolverhampton winner Ilzam while Ruby Wednesday and NORTH CREEK won their respective divisions of the same handicap over track and trip last month. The latter was the most impressive winner when quickening clear in good style so Chris Wall's colt gets the nod. Winged Dancer is now 11lb higher than his earlier success but a couple of those returning to action and are not out of this. Replenish ended last year with a win at Kempton and Inland Sea won a decent maiden at Goodwood before failing to figure in Listed company.
