      Verdict

      LASER SHOW has been raised 8lb after making all at Newmarket but Callum Shepherd could afford to ease him down in the closing stages and there looks more to come from the Godolphin runner. Arbalet posted one of his better efforts over 7f at Ascot with Oh This Is Us behind but earlier attempts at today’s trip fail to boost confidence while Fiji is fitted with headgear and dropped in trip and Vale Of Kent continues to struggle
