Race Tip

MISTER SMARTY (8) is racing consistently this season with two victories and two third-placed finishes including a third over course and distance nine days ago. Quickly turned out. Feared most. KABUKI (1) returns on the back of a wind operation and a 98-day break. Last seen finishing seventh at Uttoxeter. Improvement expected. V TWELVE (2) also reappears after a 112-day layoff. Finished fourth previously at Wetherby. Place claims. TREASURED COMPANY (11) rounds out the shortlist.
