Verdict
ENTHAAR ended last year with a victory over today’s trip at Kempton on his handicap debut. The runner-up has subsequently won and Stuart Williams’ charge is taken to show further progress today. Kadrizzi returned a losing favourite at Kempton having gone close over track and trip earlier but Rockies Spirit won over the minimum distance at Wolverhampton in November and is worth another try over 7f. Archie is not badly treated on his winning form on Turf and debuts for new connections.
