Verdict
BISHOP'S CROWN failed to justify market support on his return from 6 months off at Kempton, but back down to his last winning mark with cheekpieces refitted, he may be able to get the job done this time. Next best is Baba Reza who made a winning reappearance last season, with Tom Marquand an eye-catching jockey booking, while Fiscal Policy is another who goes well fresh.

VerdictReturned from a lengthy absence/wind op with an impressive victory at Haydock (6f) in July last year. Not ideally placed when well held back at that venue the following month and he's not one to discount if the market suggests he's ready to roll after a further 9 months off. - 5.
