Verdict

Ogee will have come on for his recent outing at Doncaster and is back on a winning mark, while Maktu could fare better today dropping down in class. Rey Nacarado moves in the opposite direction and will need to improve in this better company, and Noble Crusader has something to prove over the marathon trip. WINTERWOOD returned to winning ways over 3m at Ffos Las when beating Arturo Uno in February. He has winning form on a quick surface and Tim Vaughan's charge looks capable of following up here.
