Verdict

ANDALEEP has strong claims of landing a four-timer given he escapes a penalty for landing an apprentices’ race at Sandown last time. He’s taken to confirm running with Silverscape while Merlin's Beard had the measure of Old Port when winning one of these races at Lingfield and is 5lb higher. Haunted Dream and Eklil found one too good on their respective latest starts though neither troubled the winner while Le Forban has proved best on the all-weather so far.
