Verdict
Mystery Fox ended last year with a victory at Goodwood but GALIAC (NAP) won a tougher handicap at the latter track on his reappearance. He’s 7lb higher today but drops down a grade for this and another bold bid is expected. Alotaibi finished in front of Dream Show when beaten only a neck on his handicap bow while Conservative went close at Wolverhampton last month and Hebrides and Archiano go handicapping for the first time.
