Verdict

CONSIGN was unfancied for his comeback in much better company at Newmarket last month and ran accordingly. A winner on the Polytrack in December, a much better effort is expected from Jeremy Noseda's charge in this grade and he gets the nod. Sam Spade failed to follow-up his Kempton victory off today's mark here a fortnight ago and Tagalaka is upped in grade after also scoring at Kempton on his latest start. Al Emirati makes more appeal as he'll have come on for last month's reappearance at Wolverhampton and Freeport is not without a chance on his return to action.
