Dereham
Shed his maiden tag in the corresponding race in 2021 (good to soft) and he has added a further four wins, the last three in consecutive renewals of a 2m handicap at Newmarket; chased home a stablemate in this race last year after a six-month absence; back from eight months off today and perhaps vulnerable to younger legs.

From the connections
“Dereham is a remarkable horse and we wouldn't rule out coming back next year. This is the only race he gets to run in here and the race could not have panned out any better - John Berry, trainer.”
