      Verdict

      MOSS GILL made a winning reappearance at Wolverhampton last year and went on to land a Listed sprint at York. He’s clear of these at the weights and finished in front of Rocket Action at Doncaster when they last met in September. The latter’s stablemate Blue De Vega won four times on Turf last season but came up short at this level while Royal Birth finished runner-up in last year’s renewal and beat Ornate over track and trip in December before finding Lord Riddiford too good at Wolverhampton. Belle Anglaise has rejoined Stuart Williams having failed to win in Listed company in Germany and this is tougher.
