Verdict

SEASETT ran below par at Epsom when last seen in June but he remains lightly-raced for Charlie Fellowes and could be the answer back from a break if returning to the sort of form he showed when winning at Nottingham in April. Koy Koy wasted no time getting back on track when third at Newbury 29 days ago and could benefit from a first-time hood, while others to consider are Gweedore and last year's winner Revich.
