      Verdict

      ENTANGLING (NAP) justified favouritism back over 1m4f here last month. He’s now won both starts over today’s trip and this is less competitive than his latest task, despite a 3lb rise. Just The Man has been raised the same amount having won in this grade over track and trip last time and has the beating of Exceeding Power on earlier form at Kempton but Furzig has a bit to find with the selection on running here. Bo Samraan was progressing well and winning over 1m4f before finding the 1m6f trip beyond him last time and is preferred to Original Choice but Thematic is hard to assess debuting for new connections having only won a maiden in France earlier this year.
