In depth

Verdict

Those with experience have yet to threaten and West Newton has gone backwards since a debut fifth at Wolverhampton in November. Better is expected from Dame Freya Stark and Maqaadeer this year as both return to action but this looks a good opportunity for one of the newcomers with OSHO standing out. A half-brother to six winners including the high-class Indian Ink, who won both the Cheveley Park and Coronation Stakes for the Hannon yard, he may prove good enough at the first time of asking and is preferred to both Train To Georgia and Noverre Dancer.
