In depth
Verdict
Hiconic disappointed last time having earlier beaten Coolnaugh Haze and Mix Of Clover over track and trip though the latter pair are weighted to reverse that form. But KENZAI WARRIOR returned from a break with his best effort over hurdles so far when runner-up in a maiden here and has slipped 7lb down the weights since last competing in a handicap. No Recollection and Tedwin Hills are others with a shout.
