Verdict
Sehnsucht has had plenty of chances though none as easy as this and he should be in the mix once again. Correggio passed the post first at Catterick last time but was disqualified for hampering the runner-up and he's another likely to figure. Size was expected to do better in the same race at Catterick but could only manage third so preference is for ANEEDH. He's improved with every start, culminating in a narrow-margin defeat at Wolverhampton, and any further progress will see him off the mark. Of the newcomers, Indian Trifone is a brother to useful handicapper Indian Jack and Gaspard is related to four winners.
