        Verdict

        DESERT MASTER couldn’t quite peg back the winner after a slow start over track and trip a fortnight ago. But any cut in the ground will suit and he’s preferred to stablemate Lightning Point and Loaded Gun. The latter ran well at Goodwood last time but has had no luck with the draw today while both Macanudo and Si Si Senor have shown plenty of early pace and drop down in distance.
