      Verdict

      MEZAJY looks to have a good opportunity to open his account. A decent third at Nottingham a fortnight ago, Ed Walker's colt has plenty in hand with Inke on today's terms and has stronger form than Mile High. The latter made a promising start when fourth at Lingfield in February and makes most appeal of the remainder, who all made distinctly modest debut efforts. Gayath was well beaten at Chelmsford last month while Kingdom Of Alba and Mr Quicksilver failed to figure on their respective introductions at Leopardstown and Kempton.
