In depth
Verdict
ARTISAND was an eye-catcher on his only previous run on Turf when only beaten a couple of lengths. Slowly away on his reappearance, he could be the answer to this. City Cyclone is still improving and looks a danger but Maso Bastie carries a penalty for a narrow win on Polytrack in December. Tempered Soul was prominent for a long way at Kempton and should appreciate the extra yardage but newcomer Thawg is best watched.
