Verdict

Camouflaged makes a quick reappearance under a penalty after winning over a longer trip at Kempton earlier in the week. But he’ll need to improve further and BRODICK (NAP) is preferred having been beaten only a length over today’s distance at Newcastle last week, despite finishing only fourth - he can race off the same mark in this. The majority of the rest go handicapping for the first time and also step up in distance with the likes of Zere, Danking, Soramond and Tiger Zone all worth checking for any significant support in the betting.
