Verdict

BROOKLYN BOY has a hike in the weights to contend with having won easily at this venue before making all at Lingfield last week. But he still scored with plenty in hand last time and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick. Tigray won over track and trip in between poor efforts elsewhere on the all-weather and can figure back on this surface while Twpsyn is penalised for winning at Kempton recently but has scored here in the past. Mukha Magic debuts on the Fibresand for last year’s winning yard and is preferred to Star Ascending and Zack Mayo.
