      Verdict

      Most of these would have been happier had this been run on the Polytrack. Jersey Cream is one of those and her best recent efforts have been over further. Third Strike was tailed off on his only previous run on Turf but IF I WERE A BOY has won four times on the surface, including once off a higher mark. He was a bit unlucky when a close-up fifth on the all-weather here on Tuesday and can gain swift compensation with Glennten possibly a shade high in the weights following his Brighton double in the spring. Nottingham second Llyrical struggles to stay this far.
