Verdict

Ez Tiger finished runner-up over track and trip last time and can figure again but NADIM found only the progressive Pak Army too good at Stratford last week and Milton Harris’ charge is taken to come out best. Riggsby has had a breathing operation and is fitted with a tongue-tie after placing at Wetherby but the remainder are difficult to recommend.
