Verdict

Blue Whisper and the newcomer Flat Out Eric have no easy task but the remaining quartet all have a shout. Lilbourne Star made a promising start when runner-up at Kempton on his debut while Breaking Records is penalised for winning at Wolverhampton last month and finished behind Daltrey before that. But the latter failed to land the odds when second on his latest start and JAZIRAT is preferred. The Godolphin charge was having his first start since July when finding only one too good at Lingfield recently and another bold bid is expected.
