      Verdict

      A race that won't take much winning and this may be a good opportunity for Skibereen to open his acount at the chief expense of Hope Sound while College Fund Girl is an interesting newcomer. John Gosden's charge is clearly one of the lesser lights at account but has shown enough to suggest a race of this nature is within his compass. The son of Ashkalani finished a creditable second behind a useful yardstick over this trip at Windsor last month and may not have stayed an extra two furlongs next time. Hope Sound displayed some promise on his belated debut at Newcastle in march but ran well below expectations on his only subsequent outing and Jeremy Noseda's charge now has something to prove. In the circumstances, it would be no surprise if Gerard Butler's College Fund Girl made an impact on her debut and the market should be noted but Skibereen has been found an easy opportunity and should take full advantage.
