TEMPUS (NAP) wasn’t disgraced under a penalty when sent off favourite for the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket. This is easier and proven on the ground with today’s longer trip likely to suit, Roger Charlton’s colt can return to winning ways. Breath Caught has been raised 8lb for winning at Newmarket and has yet to encounter heavy going while Aasheq finished in front of Chatez when going close at York and remains on a winning mark. The progressive Snow Ocean, Surrey Pride and Lunar Jet are all upped in class today while Torcello ended last year hurdling but had notched-up a hat-trick on testing ground on the Flat before that.
