Verdict
TOUCHWOOD ended last year with a victory over 6f at Kempton. He’s placed over this longer trip in the past and can make a winning reappearance. Mamillius also returns to action with a shout in this grade while Algheed is a course and distance winner though was due to race here yesterday. Abduction scored over 6f here earlier in the year but has something to prove over today’s distance judged on earlier attempts.
