In depth
Verdict
A couple of these stand out on form. Fast Dancer was placed three times over 6f last year and has a bit to spare with RAHMAH on today's terms as he attempts the minimum trip for the first time. But the latter was only beaten a head over course and distance on Boxing Day and may well have too much pace for these on his return. Torridonian has a stack to find at the weights and the remainder have yet to record any form worthy of a mention.
