      Verdict

      AFANDEM will likely start a short price in this given he scored by three lengths at Doncaster on his debut and Ryan Moore takes over the reins. Son Castello was well beaten on his introduction so one of the newcomers will probably pose the biggest threat. Of those, Pleaseletmewin is related to a couple of winners and Repton is a half-brother to a Graded winner in the USA. Like the latter pair, Yalta is entered in valuable sales races but is also in the Group1 Phoenix Stakes in August and Mark Johnston gets his fair share of two-year-old winners at this venue.
