      Verdict

      Orange Suit takes a big step up in trip on his return having won over 6f last year but stablemate Raymond Tusk made a winning start over a mile at Newbury in April with subsequent winners behind. The latter is preferred to Sawwaah and Tenedos, who both struggled under penalties for earlier wins on their latest starts. LOXLEY is yet another winning debutant but was set a tough task after that when behind Saxon Warrior in the Racing Post Trophy. This longer trip will suit and Charlie Appleby’s colt gets the nod to make a winning comeback.
