    Verdict

    The returning Shalimah slipped down the weights last year and will no doubt take advantage before long. But winning hurdler Abyaat has yet to score on the Flat while Distant High found INNOKO too good over track and trip last month. The latter has since gone close again at Kempton and, racing off the same mark today, Tony Carroll’s charge can come out best.
