        Verdict

        A winner for Godolphin way back in 2010, ROAYH returned from a two year absence only last month and subsequently scored at Musselburgh by six lengths. Well handicapped on his best form, he can defy a penalty and go in again. Dutch Descent was beaten less than a length at Hamilton recently and has a shout along with Haydock third Gambino. Ellaal would prefer a faster surface but Funding Deficit handles cut in the ground and could get involved off his current mark.
