Verdict

REDAIR bids for a C&D hat-trick and it looks a distinct possibility as he won a shade cosily last time despite having to make up ground after a tardy start. David Evans' charge is fancied to confirm recent running with Gin Twist, Code Six and Miserere Mei and go in again. Russian Bullet just got the better of Alnair over 6f here last time and should be thereabouts, while Rusty Rocket and stablemate Beau Mistral both have the form to figure if anywhere near their best on their first start of the year.
