Verdict

BATHSHEBA BAY looks feasibly handicapped after the form of his recent second was done a favour on the opening day of the meeting and he ran well at this meeting last year. Zaman was a classy juvenile who should benefit from his reappearance last time out. Al Jellaby is one who should benefit from the step up in trip and has been unlucky not to win already this year.
