Verdict
Mayo Star has been lightly raced for his age but this is a tough race in which to return to action. Teescomponents Lad has suffered narrow defeats in both starts this autumn but is creeping up the weights again. Albert's Back won his first two starts last season and Captain Zebo is 4-4 around here even he though doesn’t stand much racing. MINT CONDITION goes well fresh and improved in leaps and bounds last term. Trip and going look ideal and he shouldn’t be far away again. Tommy's Oscar also looks set for another profitable campaign after finishing second at Wetherby while Bass Rock remains unexposed and has already placed twice here. Grizzly James may need his first run since arriving from France.
