      Verdict

      Boite has only won a maiden so far and is proving hard to catch right. English Summer has yet to win over further than 1m4f and was less than convincing in previous attempts at today's distance. Stablemate Gabrial's Star needs soft ground to show his best but Kashgar has leading claims after winning over 2m at Goodwood and he is still improving at the age of five. Wolverhampton winner CHARLOTTE'S DAY (NAP) steps up in class and distance but her trainer doesn't tilt at windmills and Sir Mark Prescott's filly is expected to find the necessary improvement to land this.
