      Verdict

      Light And Shade drops back in trip after disappointing at Leicester. Mustaqbal drops down a grade after weakening in the closing stages at Musselburgh but is likely to be taken on for the lead here by all-the-way Salisbury maiden winner Sirheed. That could set things up for a finisher so we'll take a chance on PHARMACEUTICAL. Charlie Hills' gelding is having his first start on Turf but did win on the Polytrack on his debut in January and was noted staying on strongly last time at Kempton, despite an awkward head carriage.
