Verdict
TUKHOOM only won a seller at Redcar last month but beat a horse rated 81 by four lengths and should make another bold bid back in handicap company. Fitzrovia attempts a hat-trick having completed a double in soft ground but is 9lb higher than last month’s success at Nottingham while Mickey showed signs of a resurgence at Doncaster last time having slid down the weights. A winner over 6f, Global Spirit has something to prove over today’s trip and the same comment applies to both Ramesses and Punjab Mail with the latter attempting a mile for the first time.
