Verdict
ARCTIC EMPEROR made all dropped down to today's trip at Newmarket on his reappearance and another bold bid is expected. Musselburgh winner Tommy G shouldn’t be inconvenienced by a drop back to a mile and the veteran gets on particularly well with Paul Mulrennan while Tilsitt was behind the latter last time though didn't get the clearest of runs. Cosmos Raj was easy to back at Hamilton last time out and Gweedore is preferred.
