Verdict
Those with experience make little appeal with the exception of HICKORY. He’s been kept in training since making a winning debut at Yarmouth back in 2020 and this won’t take much winning despite his penalty. No Turning Back may improve in a first-time hood while Alchemist's Dream is a sister to a winner and may prove best of the newcomers in a weak contest.
