Verdict

Itchy Feet made a promising start with a second at Fontwell in April and MYTHICAL PRINCE has been off the track for even longer. But the latter went close on a couple of occasions last year and Richard Johnson’s presence suggests he’ll be sharp enough to do himself justice on his reappearance. Topofthecotswolds is another returning from an absence with the form to figure while Reader's Choice has the more recent form but was still well beaten when third at Uttoxeter on his racecourse debut.
