      Verdict

      All of these can be given a chance but ALPHA THETA is the least exposed. She lost her unbeaten record at Newcastle on her handicap debut but drops down a grade for this and gets another chance. City Tour went close at Kempton last time while Oslo found only one too good over track and trip a week ago. Renardeau has undergone wind surgery since placing here while Protected Guest is not out of this on earlier placed efforts at the track. Haseefah debuts for new connections having won a maiden race in France last year.
