Verdict
Plenty with a chance in the opener including top weight Inaam, who landed a double here earlier in the year and has gone close again since. Roman De Brut ran well off today’s mark at Leicester attempting to land a hat-trick and Jordan James should be winning again this year. Amood has a bit to prove over this longer trip but the less-exposed EXCEL AGAIN won his maiden over track and trip in February. He returns to this surface for the first time since and, with further progress expected, James Tate’s colt gets the nod. Champion Harbour was due to run here yesterday.
