Verdict

LATTAM won the Irish Lincolnshire by only a short-head at the Curragh last month. But he would have returned a more comfortable winner with a clear run and can defy a 5lb rise. Alrehb has been in fine form on the all-weather though has yet to win on Turf while Brunch ran well in Listed company at Doncaster on his reappearance though was well beaten by Atrium at the same track last autumn. The latter will be sharper for running in the Lincoln earlier this month and the same comment applies to Jimi Hendrix and Revich while Saga failed to win last year and has been subsequently gelded. Toimy Son has only his second outing for new connections and could go well judged on last year’s best form in France.
