        Verdict

        Luca Cumani won last year's renewal with a similar type to CONNECTICUT. The son of New Approach continued his good progress when scoring on his handicap debut at York and promises to be even better over this longer trip. Warrior Of Light found another Cumani inmate in Mount Logan too good at Goodwood while both Xinbama and Missed Call came up short at Chester on their latest starts. Linguine's win at Doncaster came in soft ground but Buckland showed signs of a resurgence when third at Kempton last time.
