In depth
Verdict
Kalu was claimed after his track and trip victory under the Godolphin banner and has the scope to do better. Notacadbutacard hasn't been in the best of form though takes a slight drop in class but Perfetto landed a couple of minor races in January and is going up a grade. DOODLE HOPPER is a real track and trip specialist, gaining his sixth course victory when last seen in January. If he's ready after a break he'll take some beating as Drill's Li'l Man does best when drawn on the inside and may struggle to get a lead from this berth.
