Verdict
Tahreek returns to action having won at Leicester in September and has been gelded subsequently. Jim Crowley prefers the latter to Monaadhil while Rogue ran well over track and trip on his first start for new connections and could be in the mix. But Doncaster maiden winner JALAAD (NAP) was beaten a length in novice company at Wolverhampton attempting to give a stone to the winner and it’s Saeed bin Suroor’s charge that get nod to come out best in this now handicapping for the first time. Top Mission went close here before disappointing at Windsor and is preferred to Atletico of the remainder.
