Verdict

BAILARICO has been competing in tougher races than this and finished a creditable third over 2m in Class 3 company at Goodwood on his penultimate start. He may be good enough in this and is preferred to Nafaayes, who scored over track and trip last month but was well beaten at Haydock subsequently along with Angel Gabrial, who also won here in June. So Near So Farhh won over 2m at Chepstow before placing back at the same track while Overhaugh Street, Celestial Force, Gabrial The One and Heart Of Soul are all capable of figuring if staying this longer trip.
