Verdict
Most make their handicap debuts including the unbeaten Tornadic, who defied a penalty at Salisbury last time. King Tiger beat a subsequent winner in a maiden over track and trip and should have the measure of Legendary Day while State Occasion went close at Wolverhampton and is preferred to Escobedo. But it could pay to stick with the progressive MIAMI JOY, whose only defeat so far came in Group 2 company. He is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Lingfield on his latest start.
