      Verdict

      TAMASKA has shown progressive form this year and followed a victory at Wetherby with an easier win at Yarmouth. He’s preferred to stablemate Safran, who finished behind runner-up Mykonos St John over track and trip a week ago. The latter has every chance once again while Maywake ended last year with a double at Newcastle and is 4lb higher on his reappearance. Bringitonboris and Algheed have been in good form on the all-weather lately while Parys Mountain won at Catterick last time.
