      Verdict

      Teodoro notched a treble last year before struggling in a tough handicap at Newbury and has a shout on his return. Nayel has the more recent form with a victory at Windsor and should go well again but KARAWAAN is preferred. Sir Michael Stoute’s charge finished a close-up third at Newcastle on his reappearance and should be sharper for this. Master Singer is another expected to improve on the back of a recent pipe-opener while Breden drops back down in class and should finish closer.
