Verdict

Representing last year’s winning yard, FIZZY FEET has been in fine form at Lingfield recently but has also won here in the past. He’s beaten Aberama Gold the last twice and finished in front of Summerghand when runner-up in Listed company on his latest start. The latter won last year’s Stewards’ Cup and is capable of better while Venturous returns to 6f having won three times over the minimum trip this winter. Major Jumbo was well beaten in the Ayr Gold Cup when last in action while Huraiz has plenty to prove in this higher grade.
