    Verdict

    WHISPERED can close proceedings with another winner for Keiren Fallon. She's done nothing wrong in finishing runner-up on her last three starts and breeding suggests Sir Michael Stoute's filly will be at home over today's longer trip. Jamr is Frankie Dettori's only ride of the meeting, but he should have done better at Lingfield last time despite the step up to 1m6f, and stablemate Yasir is not out of this after his debut fourth over 1m2f at this track. Shaqira and Viva Diva are closely matched on their running behind Jiwen last month and Mahayogin is worth noting on his debut.
