Verdict

Warrior's Valley won over track and trip last month with Classic Pursuit, Samovar and MININGGOLD behind. But the latter reversed running back here last month in convincing fashion and Michael Dods’ charge is fancied to go in again despite a 5lb rise. Midnight Malibu never recovered from a slow start here in February but scored in a higher grade over course and distance before that and is not out of this while Fibresand winner Jabbarockie makes more appeal than both Show Palace and Only Spoofing as all three return to action.
