In depth
Verdict
One or two of these are talented, but are starting to become frustrating. Carouse , Cosa Nostra and MUTAKATIF fall under this category, and the latter is given one last chance from his plum draw. Ateem is a promising sort, but his outside draw is offputting, while Gabrials Centurion should step up on his debut run over this longer trip and Spud represents a yard which does well at this track.
