      In depth

      Verdict

      Rated 82, DICHATO found a progressive Godolphin favourite too good at Newcastle on his return from a lay-off. He’ll be sharper for this and looks the one to beat given Say About It has plenty to find on these terms and Genuinely Crowded and Lenin have plenty of improving to do. A newcomer may prove more of a threat with Perfect Illusion, a half-brother to a couple of winners, preferred to the filly Victoria Drummond.
