    Verdict

    Master Zephyr went close over track and trip on his reappearance but has been upped 7lb for his troubles. Cornelious and Whitchurch arrive on the back of maiden wins with the former preferred on his success at Windsor. Shalimah faded badly on his return to action and may need more time while Mister Rockandroll has failed to take advantage of a lower mark back on Turf after scoring on the all-weather in March. BELGRADE (NAP) is still improving and was beaten less than a length at Doncaster by Subcontinent, who went on to land a hat-trick. Richard Hannon's colt gets the nod on the strength of that form with Cam Hardie's claim further helping his cause.
