      Verdict

      I KNOW HOW (NAP) bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins raised 6lb. Julie Camacho’s charge beat the re-opposing Indian Sounds with a couple of lengths to spare last time and may not have stopped winning yet. Recent runner-up Glenamoy Lad finished in front of Mia Mento here but that was the latter’s first outing since last summer and debut for new connections and she may well reverse running but Equiano Springs returns to action 5lb higher than when scoring at Newmarket in September. Buccaneers Vault is upped in class while Insurplus drops down in trip though won over a mile on last year’s card.
