In depth
Verdict
Giorgio Vasari is regularly placed in this grade and can figure again but TASKHEER has improved for a breathing operation and ended a long losing run when scoring at Lingfield earlier in the week. He remains well treated, despite a penalty, if reproducing that effort. Mcqueen will appreciate the return to this shorter trip while Macon Belle has a shout though was due to run at Wolverhampton yesterday.
