In depth

Verdict

Kachumba has struggled in tougher races than this since winning at Brighton in September and should do better back at this level. But CHICA DE LA NOCHE arrives in better form having won twice over today’s trip over the winter and placed on the Polytrack here last time. Simon Dow’s mare should go close again in a weak handicap. Margie's Choice drops down in trip for this and Blazed has a shout off his current mark judged on last year’s placed efforts. Savitar is the least expose and may improve on only his second start for a new yard.
