      Verdict

      Martin Todhunter doesn’t have too many winners on the Flat but Molinari has been a fine servant to the yard and the hat-trick seeker is running at the peak of his powers at present. Colinton obliged at Haydock in May and is respected but CHAMPAGNE CITY has been a prolific winner over hurdles since last seen on the Flat and looks worth chancing having switched to Ian Williams' yard. Atacama Desert is a former Sir Michael Stoute inmate and though yet to score in six starts, his present handler does have his string in flying form.
