Verdict

A tight looking handicap that can go the way of the potentially well treated KHANDAQ. This gelding is the least exposed in the line-up and his run in an decent looking Haydock maiden, when he beat home a subsequent 86 rated winner, two starts ago suggests his opening mark of 78 looks light. Revue Princess is clearly on form but was all out to win at Ayr last time out so might struggle from this revised mark so Pepper Lane might be a bigger danger from a yard in form. George Benjamin should over turn the form on Revue Princess after their last meeting so has a clear chance but Khandaq is potentially well-in here.
