    Verdict

    TURBO COMMAND was disappointing when amateur ridden at Carlisle last time but earlier form at Ayr suggests he should go close in a race like this. Spartakos is only 3lb higher than when landing this in 2021 and usually pops up at least once in a season. Doomsday was entered in the 3.42 here yesterday and none of the others make much appeal.
