Verdict

MAY NIGHT (NAP) debuts on the Fibresand but Andrew Balding’s yard has a good strike rate at the track. The former returned to action with a victory at Kempton and can defy a penalty reunited with Oisin Murphy having won under the latter last year. Dajraan is upped in trip for his handicap debut but Woke Media won over course and distance earlier and went close at Wolverhampton last time. There was little between Fircombe Hall and Fae The Port over 6f here last month while Maximum Risk was successful over track and trip in October but is 4lb higher on his return having been gelded.
