Verdict
LIHOU has been in good form on the all-weather this year and was beaten under a length at Newmarket a week ago back on Turf. He’s run well at both Chester and Goodwood in the past so has the early pace to handle this track. Recon Mission won this off a 5lb higher mark in 2021 but Pablo Del Pueblo needs to bounce back from a poor run last time at Lingfield. Twilight Madness has had a break since beaten when chasing a four-timer at Southwell in December while Dig Two could get taken off his feet over this trip. Harb hasn’t shown much on Turf but Kape Moss, who holds Angle Land on the form book, looks a danger.
