Verdict
QUICK BREATH (NAP) didn't show much in his opening campaign but has obviously improved over the winter as he was well supported before scoring at Windsor. He's been raised 6lb but this looks no tougher and he can complete a quick double. Procedure has been a beaten favourite in three of her four starts including on her handicap debut at Chelmsford so she'll need to have made good progress. Ghayadh began his carer with a victory at Beverley last July so obviously goes well fresh while Iconic Knight ended his opening campaign with an impressive victory at Windsor and wouldn't need much more. Jack Taylor, a winner on the all-weather at Deauville in December, didn't appear to handle Epsom last month and takes a drop in class.
