Verdict

Having shaped with some promise initially, expensive yearling MAWKEB didn't kick on as expected in a couple of races last year. However, he's since joined a yard that do well with such recruits and, on the back of being gelded/now handicapping it would come as no surprise to see an improved showing. Old News down in class and Southwell scorer Homer Stokes can also feature.
