Verdict

Dal Harraild faces a tougher task raised 8lb for winning at Musselburgh last month and Chelsea's Boy is upped in class after a narrow-margin win at Goodwood. MANJAAM found one too good sent over to Down Royal three weeks ago but Ed Dunlop’s colt is proven over the distance and there should be more to come from him. The remainder with claims all step up in trip including the progressive Shabbah, chasing a four-timer after his latest success at Sandown, while High Shields and Wave Reviews have won maiden races over 1m2f at Goodwood and Salisbury respectively. Dessertoflife and Paris Protocol are capable in this grade but also have something to prove over 1m4f.
