        Verdict

        Formerly with Godolphin, SWORD EXCEED made a winning start for new connections when scoring over 6f here on his handicap debut. There could be a lot more to come from him and he’s taken to shrug off a hike in the weights. Glorious Rocket and Aventinus were beaten in handicaps last year but all of the remainder won maiden races on their latest starts. Archer's Arrow, Moolazim and Cinque Port have the more recent form with the former winning at Kempton earlier this month and the latter pair both winning at Chelmsford. Black Bolt and Thaaqib make most appeal of those returning to action.
