Verdict
Tangramm is upped a couple of grades off a higher mark bidding for a five-timer while Newmarket winner Zamperini returns to action off a 5lb higher mark. Fallen For A Star and Hell Yeah ended last year with victory in maidens but Almodovar has been upped 6lb for finishing second in this grade at Pontefract back in August. Higher Power ran well at Haydock on his comeback and has plenty of scope along with PETRUCCI. The latter went close on his handicap bow at Windsor and Sir Michael Stoute’s charge could go close on his reappearance off his current mark.
