Verdict
Several make their handicap debuts with Newcastle runner-up Keeponbelieving preferred to both Blue Antares and Killing Eve. Cariad has won three times on the all-weather since last seen on Turf but it could pay to stick with ARKENSTAAR (NAP). The latter is creeping closer to opening his account and Michael Dods’ charge can race off the same mark as when runner-up over track and trip last time with Epona Pas well behind.
