      Verdict

      Ghalyoon went close at Lingfield last month when ahead of Huraiz. Jim Crowley stays loyal and he looks to have strong claims along with Firmament, who returns to the all-weather having been beaten only a nose at Doncaster. But the former Ballydoyle inmate PISTOLETTO (NAP) ran his best race since joining John Ryan when beaten only a length in this grade at Lingfield recently and looks worth sticking with racing off the same mark today. Intuitive has undergone wind surgery since well beaten at Meydan early in the year and is fitted with additional headgear on his debut for the Crisfords yard while Lincoln Park and Mohareb are both upped in class for this.
