Verdict

Pockley is penalised having won over 7f here recently and looks vulnerable to the handicap debutants including Currency Exchange. The latter also steps up from 7f along with Night Of Romance but Smart Qibili went close over track and trip last month. Military Man returned a losing favourite at Wolverhampton while Annandale won a novices race over 1m2f at Bath. ALBERT CAMUS has been rested since failing to figure in a decent maiden race at Newmarket in September. But John Gosden has an impressive strike rate here and improvement is expected today in what looks a wide-open contest.
