      Verdict

      THAHAB has the best piece of form with a third at Doncaster in October before disappointing back at the same track. He may be up to landing this on his return ahead of Marasim, well beaten on his racecourse debut at Kempton but expected to improve. Cloak And Degas has plenty in hand with Big City Boy on handicap ratings while Tadarrok may prove best of the newcomers ahead of Your Lucky Day, a half-brother to Fibresand winner Hannahs Turn.
