        Verdict

        Having failed to threaten in earlier starts over a mile, BOWDITCH ended last year with a win at Lingfield in October when upped to 1m2f. The Gosden colt will be fancied to make a winning return, despite a penalty, given the others with racing experience have shown only modest form to date with Nordic Flight and Elysees looking the most likely to improve. Of the newcomers Lumen is bred for middle-distances and preferred to Alliteration.
