Verdict

BAKE (NAP) looks worth sticking with having followed up a maiden success with victory at Doncaster on his handicap debut. The runner-up has won subsequently and there looks plenty more to come from Martyn Meade’s charge. Tadreeb won at Haydock when dropped back down to 7f while Carolus Magnus placed over today’s trip at Sandown and Bucephalus ran well at Ascot before returning a losing favourite last time. Caribou won twice last year and has more scope than most returning from a lengthy absence.
