Verdict
Three of these are looking to defy penalties for recent wins. Kings Highway scored at Kempton last month and Get Back Get Back won over track and trip on his latest start. But SUN HAT came good over today’s trip at Newcastle recently and with Simon Crisford’s yard in such good form, she gets the vote to find the most improvement as that was her first outing of the year. Scoffsman went close at Chelmsford but this looks tougher while Merweb showed some ability at Leicester on his debut. Cantiniere is the second foal of a Group 2 winner and can go well for Godolphin while Logan's Choice is a related to a winner in Greece.
