Tazaman is having a first run since October and has only placed once so far in five runs on Turf. Denable is 0-23 while 1m6f on fast ground may be an insufficient test of stamina for hurdler Soldier On Parade, who has had wind surgery since last seen in the autumn. DIAMOND CUTTER (NAP) is still a maiden but was well backed on his reappearance at Goodwood. He’ll strip fitter today and could outclass these.
