        Verdict

        This looks a hot nursery with seven of the nine runners having won at least once. Of the maidens, Albanman has only found one too good in his two previous starts while Mr Trick is improving with experience. TITIAN clearly appreciated the step up to a mile at Newcastle as he turned over the odds-on Alpha King with a degree of comfort – expect him to build on that. Patient Dream was too keen over course and distance last month and is better than that and the tough London Palladium is unlikely to be far away again. Victim still has plenty of scope but Valorant only won a Class 5 at Sandown and had to be ridden out to do so.
