Verdict

Sharjah continues his quest to equal the record for the number of track victories but the tenth success is proving elusive. He was 3l behind Miss Louise over the track and trip last month and though a few pounds better off at the weights the winner can have his measure again. Both were behind Wild Shot a couple of weeks ago and Mistiness, three times a winner on Turf but making his all-weather debut that day and only beaten a length, could beat the pair of them. Rockfish was having his first start over the trip when fifth behind Miss Snossyboots on Sunday while Alcander had finished 5l behind that winner earlier and is still 5lb higher than his only winning mark. DAYEREH has never won but a line through the in-form Wild Shot puts her right in the picture and she could prove the value in a tricky finale.
