Verdict

A race notable for Luca Cumani's first runner in Britain this year and PRAXIOS may well be capable of taking this. He was unfancied on both starts last term but showed promise when runner-up here on his second start and this extra furlong is sure to suit the half-brother to Presvis. Fadhaa is another who will appreciate the longer trip after finishing sixth on his debut over 7f at Doncaster in October, while better is expected from Greyfriars Drummer and Joe Strummer given both encountered testing ground on their racecourse debuts last year. Newcomer Play Music looks one to note for the future.
