      Verdict

      None of these arrive in sparkling form but Taste The Wine has been thereabouts of late and Now What may figure again after a third at Newbury. Youm Jamil never threatened the winner when runner-up at Warwick last time and had finished behind third-placed Arch Event at Bath earlier. SILVER SAMBA has returned a disappointing favourite the last twice but Andrew Balding's filly gets another chance here. This uninspiring contest looks less competitive than her recent tasks and she went close off today's mark back in April.
