Verdict

Desert Doctor is much better on the all-weather but is race-fit and his stable won this last year. Buridan won here and at Haydock last year and made a promising reappearance at Doncaster but still finished behind Green Power and TOMMY TAYLOR (NAP). Kevin Ryan’s charge was the eye-catcher that day, finishing with a flourish after missing the break, and has been dropped a further pound since. Alemaratalyoum did well last season but Count Otto and Zain Hana may be better treated. Flavius Titus has done most of his racing over 7f but handled the step down at Ascot in October and Roger Varian’s gelding can’t be left out of calculations.
