Verdict
A case can be made for all of these so AABIR gets only a tentative vote. He made a winning start last year and found only one too good on his reappearance over today's trip at Beverley on his handicap debut. Belgrade never looked catching the winner at Leicester on his first start handicapping while King Bolete and Atab return to action on the back of maiden wins in soft ground. Dutch Uncle and Subcontinent are more exposed maiden winners having both landed the odds at Wolverhampton last time.
