        Verdict

        Druids Ridge is related to several winners and made a very promising start when second at Newbury, though never looked like catching winner Sahaafy. He looks sure to win races but may have to settle for second-best again here behind MUSTAAQEEM. Despite being easy to back, Sir Michael Stoute's colt was only caught close home in the Wood Ditton at Newmarket last month and the form of that race is usually worth following. Arthenus is a likely improver having only had one run last year while Depth Charge also has scope but Sonnythenavigator has already been beaten in modest company.
