Verdict

Catch My Breath’s second here in December hinted at a return to form and he’s back on a winning mark. SMART CONNECTION hasn’t raced since October but ended last year with a double and may well defy a 3lb rise on his return. Agent Of Fortune won here last month while Divine Messenger slips further down the weights and Hackbridge drops down in trip. Eastern Star placed over 7f last time but has yet to win on the all-weather in 19 attempts.
