        Verdict

        Imprimis Tagula is better on the all-weather and Last Sovereign looks no nearer to winning despite slipping down the weights. It was only a poor seller that Frognal won at Redcar last week and he'll struggle to repeat so a chance is taken on CHORAL. He's certainly no shoo-in having taken eight starts to lose his maiden tag with a victory over 7f on the Polytrack in March, but Richard Hannon's charge may just be good enough to follow up now he's finally tasted success. Seek The Fair Land was engaged to run at Goodwood last night.
