Verdict
PRINCE ABU has been thereabouts over 1m6f lately and the return to this longer trip could see him get his head back in front. The Craftymaster went close over course and distance in October and should figure again while Steel Helmet pops up at this level when the mood takes him. Kemerton has slipped down the handicap and is not out of this if lasting home.
