DAQEEQ has plenty going for him here. Simon Crisford’s charge finished runner-up over track and trip on last month’s reappearance when ahead of a subsequent winner with today’s rival Point of View further back in fourth. The latter should go well again along with Lexington Law, who was placed at Windsor recently. Perigee returns to action having made the frame at Nottingham in October while both Firnas and Master Gunner look likely improvers as both make their seasonal debuts. Marshall Aid and Askari are newcomers to note for the future.
