Verdict

JUNCART ended last year with victory in a Class 2 sprint at Haydock and Ryan Moore's presence suggests he will be ready for action on his return. Thirsk winner Don't Tell Annie could also go well now handicapping for the first time and that also applies to maiden winners Handsome Dude and Seve, who both make their seasonal debuts. Among Angels returned a 16/1 winner at Thirsk more recently when Bowson Fred finished third while all-weather winners Thahab and Foxtrot Knight are others to consider. Twice a winner in France over the minimum trip, Something Lucky ran well for new connections when third at Hamilton last time and could be in the mix.
