Verdict
Open Mind and Watchya won on the all-weather last month while Beauzon scored over track and trip back in January but is 6lb higher. COOLMEEN ROYAL (NAP) also won here in the same month when beating three subsequent winners in a novices race and David O’Meara’s colt may prove the one to side with now handicapping. Phinow and Sky Blue Pink are other novice winners while both Object won a nursery at Kempton last year.
