Verdict
Ancient Times has failed to build on a debut third at York but still has the beating of Swooper on these terms. But SHAYKHOON finished a promising third at Lingfield behind Tanfantic, rated 86, on his introduction and Richard Fahey’s colt should figure again on that evidence. Jacattack ran well on soft going at Musselburgh earlier and is another to consider while Mops Gem is preferred to King'slove of the remainder.
