Verdict

This looks between the previous winners both representing powerful yards. Lost Eden scored over track and trip on last month’s reappearance and looks sure to figure once again. But the runner-up on that occasion was trained by the Gosden yard and the latter send ROYAL MEWS, who scored by six lengths at Chelmsford in October and may prove the one to side with on his return. Poet's Eye ran better over a mile on her debut than she did last time while Seagulls Nest drops down in trip on her first outing of the year.
