      Verdict

      Star Shield slips further down the weights but Mi Capricho looks high enough in the handicap at present. Diamond Haze disappointed last time but better is expected from Under Fox back over today’s shorter trip. YAASER moves in the opposite direction but is unexposed over today’s mile trip having been in consistently good form over 7f so far this year and Jim Goldie’s charge looks worth another chance.
