      Verdict

      Toocoolforschool is the one to beat on his narrow defeat at the hands of Dutch Connection in the Acomb at York. He has plenty in hand at the weights with Sea Wolf while both Carry On Deryck and Peacock were beaten in similar company last time. Nafaqa and Risen Sun arrive on the back of maiden victories with preference for the former on his win at Newbury, but a chance is taken on another maiden winner in WHITE LAKE. He went into plenty of notebooks after making an impressive start in a Class 2 contest at York when starting 25/1 and Luca Cumani steps him straight up into pattern company here.
