Verdict
Bahango wasn't beaten far over track and trip last time, despite finishing only fifth, and has the beating of Vivre La Reve on today's terms. But KYRENIA CASTLE gets another chance in this given the Hannon colt clearly failed to get home over 6f at Kempton having gone close over the minimum trip at the same track before that. He had Desert Apostle well behind on the latter occasion while Bahama Blue makes little appeal on her modest debut effort in October.
