Verdict

WAXING GIBBOUS made a promising reappearance when runner-up at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, pulling clear of the remainder, and she can build on that effort to go one better. Heading the list of dangers is Capstan as he bids for the 4-timer, while Mrs Twig made a winning return and is also considered.

  1. WAXING GIBBOUS
  2. CAPSTAN
  3. MRS TWIG (IRE)
