Verdict

It's been an age since HUZZAH won but he finally be ready to get his head back in front having gone close at Brighton last month and he gets the token vote. Warbond has been running well over a mile in similar company at Kempton of late and may figure while Lady Mango recorded her only win so far over 6f here in March. Gazboolou is back on a winning a mark if he can be bothered and Do More Business was beaten only a head over C&D in February. For Life and Arctic Mirage have both slipped down the weights and have the past form to figure.
