Verdict

Lazyitis won over track and trip before disappointing at Southwell while Phoenix Star placed at the latter track last time but does most of his winning at Kempton. By contrast, OUTRAGE usually saves his best for this track and has returned to a winning mark. He should go close again with a repeat of his placed effort here back in November. Faustus returns to action with a shout and J R Cavagin is one of the least exposed debuting on the all-weather.
