Verdict
Several return to action including Wahash. He’s at home at this level but failed to win last year while though Rinaria scored at Windsor in October Karl Burke's charge is 9lb higher today. Windsor Beach had bits of form in Ireland last term and debuts for new connections but those offering more recent evidence of well-being are preferred. Chevallier remains in fine fettle and beat MY TARGET (NAP) over track and trip last month. But the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms today and was winning off a 7lb higher mark at this time last year. Poet's Society should also go well and makes more appeal than the likes of Spare Parts and Wink Oliver in this grade.
