    Verdict

    The only four-year-old, Amirli, has shown little since arriving from France but is blinkered for the first time. Black Key hasn't have had much experience and though looking one-paced at Haydock last time the faster ground may bring about some improvement. Roger Varian's horses are running so well that DASAATEER should take this. He's only had two runs and was staying on over 1m2f at Newmarket last time.
