    Verdict

    Sent off at 11/1 on debut, DANADANA is likely to start much shorter here and is expected to win. Luca Cumani's colt will no doubt have been brought along slowly so it was very encouraging to see him finish within three lengths of Gentleman Is Back at Wolverhampton last month. Fire Fighter and Hot Spice looks nursery types, so a bigger threat might be Marden who shaped with promise on debut and should be watched for market support. Control Chief drops in grade but hasn't shown enough to get excited about, Muffraaj needs to improve on his Haydock debut, whilst Raahin, a 200,000 guineas son of Oasis Dream, and Waterford Star, from the yard that won this maiden in 2008, are both sexy newcomers to respect.
