Verdict

Athmad is upped in class after winning over track and trip while Mythical Madness scored at Thirsk last summer and has his first start since. A four-timer proved beyond Power Of States when only third at Chelmsford while Teston is upped in trip after finishing second over 7f at Southwell. A maiden winner in Ireland, Avarice is worth a second glance debuting for a new yard but a chance is taken KASER returns to form now back on the same mark as when landing this race last year.
