Verdict

A disappointing turnout of four should see Mark Johnston's Lucky Story prevail over Zwadi. It has been a week to remember for Mark Johnston, with a trio of big juvenile winners at Royal Ascot, but as the late Arthur Stepehenson used to say: "Little fish are just as sweet." With that in mind Lucky Story can quickly make amends for his defeat over the course and distance in May-he ran as green as the grass and will be a different proposition this time. Zwadi made her debut on the all-weather at Southwell and was not beaten far in third after showing bags of speed. She might be suited by a drop back to five furlongs but can still make a race of it with the selection, Lucky Story.
