      Verdict

      Man Look is related to several winners and this trip looks ideal for his debut while Casila looks a potentially nice type as she's by Derby winner High Chaparral out of a Ribblesdale winner. EMIRATES SKYWARDS has been caught in the shadow of the post in his two starts to date. He looked a certain winner at Haydock last time but was just touched off by Mustard with the remainder well beaten so this should be third-time lucky. Shakopee, whose dam has produced six winners, made a promising start behind Fieldsman at Brighton and with the extra furlong certain to suit he looks an obvious threat.
