Verdict

A trappy sprint in which preference is for BUCCABAY, who had been holding his form well prior to his latest Newmarket effort and Eve Johnson Houghton's 6-y-o can bounce back quickly to open his 2026 account. Tyger Bay caused a 33/1 shock at Yarmouth last month and with 5 C&D wins to his name, he's put forward as the main threat. Mesaafi may prove best of the rest.
