Verdict

Leader Of The Land had an engagement at Chester yesterday but could go close if re-routed here. Tartan Gunna is back on a winning mark and entitled to respect but the safer option is BOURNE, who won over this trip at Nottingham and Doncaster last season and made an encouraging reappearance at Newbury three weeks ago. Azimuth is still a maiden but stays this trip and has place claims again while Onyx Of Arabia could also make the frame if fully wound-up following his winter break. French import The Only Key was still acclimatising last year and may be the pick of the remainder.
