Verdict

BROADSPEAR looks to have the strongest form with a debut second over 7f at Salisbury last season. This longer trip will suit and Roger Varian has good strike rate at the track. Yellow Bear showed enough in three outings here last year to suggest he’ll be winning soon with Bastille and Manaslu other likely improvers. The latter’s stablemate Positive Force, Reel Prospect and Cubana Habana are newcomers to keep an eye on.
