Verdict

Parvana was quite highly tried in her first season and should improve on her comeback run at Ascot. But she may have to play second fiddle here to NEW HAMPSHIRE, who improved dramatically on his debut when runner-up to the well-regarded Timeline over this trip at Sandown. Clearly going the right way, John Gosden's colt has the beating of Bugler's Dream on that run and can get off the mark today. New River still has some scope while Raahin shaped with considerable promise after missing the break on his debut at Leicester in the autumn and looks the pick of the remainder - connections are sure to find a race for him in the near future if not today.
