Verdict

Serengeti Sunset is fitted with cheekpieces having returned a beaten favourite at Chelmsford when four lengths behind the runner-up PENZANCE (NAP). Headgear is also applied to the latter, who wandered off a straight line in the closing stages and should go close again in this. Ramensky has had time to recover having been pulled up at Southwell in February and he can figure while Zara's Return won over a mile at Newmarket last month, though is upped in trip along with New Dayrell and Stage Show.
