      Verdict

      Technological was only beaten four lengths at Plumpton, despite looking in need of the run. Picanha has been lightly raced for his age but TIGERTEN may be worth sticking with having narrowly got off the mark over this trip at Kempton with To Be Sure’s third at Ffos Las coming over 3m. Balkeo should strip fitter for last month’s third at Sandown but Come On Gruff disappointed on his handicap debut at Doncaster.
