    Verdict

    John Gosden runs three with Louis Armstrong preferred to both Stiletto and the newcomer Law Of The Sea. But the former has three lengths to find on running at Newcastle with KONDO ISAMI, who finished third on that occasion and should be bang there at the finish once again. The latter also makes more appeal than both Beautiful Crown and Strictly Spicy but Charlie Appleby runs a couple of Dubawi newcomers in Tamborrada and Vasilakos and that pair should be monitored in the betting.
