Verdict
CHANTICO (NAP) failed to land the odds at Kempton on his handicap debut but didn’t help his cause by refusing to settle and today’s application of a hood should solve that problem. First Officer and Mustazeed also returned losing favourites last time though the latter was only narrowly beaten at Doncaster while the former finished well behind third-placed Tiger Beetle. Sweet Reward was only sixth in this last year while Punchestown maiden winner Saturn Five makes his handicap debut having switched yards.
