      Verdict

      Similar comments applying here as in division one with a number of badly handicapped horses taking their chances with the usual suspects. Turku is a consistent performer in this grade but he has not been done any favours from the fifteen draw. Pays d'Amour did not do too much on his sole start on the surface but the booking of Kieren Fallon should ensure strong handling. Lady Birgitta is much the best of these on official ratings. He has left Rae Guest's yard since his best days but his trainer is enduring a barren run at the moment. In a no-bet race, an eye is kept on Alan Jarvis' Danehill Prince. The horse finished second in a maiden to Pagan Sky at Goodwood and on his first foray into selling grade, the entire is still relatively unexposed.
