Verdict

Verdict

Kaaress recorded a victory in classified company last time out and although the five-year-old doesn't have much more to do back in a handicap, preference is afforded to SILKIES SIB. The son of Cotai Glory has been a model of consistency since claiming gold at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day and further success looks sure to come sooner rather than later. Others to consider include Night Bear and Prince Hector.

Top Tip: Silkies Sib (2)
Watch out for: Kaaress (5)
