In depth
Verdict
Bauhinia Rhapsody has placed on the Polytrack while Yeoman finished closer at Kempton last time. Military Tycoon showed some ability when fourth at Newcastle while BLEAK looks another likely improver on the back of a recent debut on the all-weather. The latter’s dam had winning form on testing ground in France and the Haggas colt gets the vote. Regheeb and Italian Magic are newcomers worthy of a second glance.
