Formscan  - Kadastral has struggled on more testing ground than he encounters here on his last couple of starts and it wouldn't be a surprise if he were fairly handicapped off 125. Cosmic Connection was successful on his handicap bow at Chepstow a fortnight ago and is expected to be competitive along with the progressive Kocktail Bleu, but the vote goes to MINELLA YOGA. The four-year-old has enjoyed a fine start to his career, winning three of his four starts, and his trainer's decision to miss all the major juvenile races this spring might be rewarded here.
