      Verdict

      Sonko found Ballesteros too good over C&D last month having tried to make all and it could prove a similar story today with POWERFUL WIND re-opposing. The latter failed to figure in the soft ground here on his penultimate start but went on to score on a faster surface at York a fortnight ago and should have the race run to suit. C&D winner Bubbly Ballerina remains out of sorts but Royal Reyah is holding his form and should be winning again soon while Signifer ran below par at Sandown on Thursday but is better than that.
