Verdict

SLEVEN took a step forward at Doncaster last time and any further progress should see him go close in this. Action Plan disappointed at Carlisle last time when behind Alfie Boy, who represents last year’s winning yard, while Ziggy's Condor is a brother to a winner and a half-brother to a couple of useful sprinters and is preferred to stablemate Sailthisshipalone. Royal Zabeel is another newcomer to note.
