In depth
Verdict
Tazaman took advantage of a slide down the weights to win over track and trip 11 days ago. He’s 4lb higher today but can confirm running with fourth-placed Olivers Pursuit. Wadacre Gogo makes a quick reappearance carrying a penalty for last week’s success over a shorter trip at Chelmsford but SANDS FURY has the most scope of these. He’ll need to step up on last month’s handicap debut on soft ground at Lingfield but further progress is expected from John Butler’s charge.
