Verdict

TANASOQ can wind back the clock and record a first victory since June last year with the nine-year-old 5lb lower in the weights now. Abel Handy is also well treated nowadays while Aconcagua Mountain had Mrs Bagerran, Pacopash and Koropick behind when landing a gamble at Redcar earlier in the month. Canaria Prince made all here a week ago and should make a bold bid to defy his penalty while Primo has placed the last twice at Wolverhampton.
