      Verdict

      Newbury winner Omaruru makes his handicap debut and could figure although he's been off the track for over a year, while Quarton unseated last time but finished ahead of Taaresh at Ludlow before that. AP McCoy takes over the reins on the latter today and he may well reverse running, but the vote KEALIGOLANE. Barry Murtagh's charge disappointed last time but has solid claims on his earlier efforts including a maiden win at Musselburgh and he's taken to score now handicapping for the first time. Tom O'Tara returns to action and makes more appeal than Rawaaj on his placed form of last year.
