Verdict
Cogital won at Chepstow when dropped down to today’s trip and should be in the mix once again. ROZALIA missed the whole of last year but opened her account on the Turf course at Lingfield recently and there looks more to come this season with James Fanshawe’s yard in fine form. Sea Of Charm went close at Doncaster but has proven difficult to win with while Zikany has the past form to figure. Kingsofthemidlands remains unexposed and returns to action with a shout on his handicap debut.
