Verdict

Plenty with claims in a difficult start for punters with only a speculative vote going to MAZYOUN. He drops down in class after finishing fifth at York while Sultan Baybars has also faced more difficult tasks of late. The less-exposed Almoreb and Mojito step up a grade for this and Firefright and Zefferino won their respective maidens before failing to figure on their handicap debuts. Prost’s best efforts have come on soft ground while Tai Sing Yeh has struggled in a couple of starts at this level.
