      In depth

      Verdict

      Al Nayyir was brought with a well-timed run to catch Bosphorus over 1m2f last month but the latter will be 6lb better off and should reverse the form over this shorter trip. Influencer stayed on well and might find this on the short side but First Winter ran well on his reappearance over the track and trip in February so the lack of a run shouldn't be a problem. WITHERING had a very good first season here last winter with a close second in a Listed contest on Dirt the highlight. He goes well fresh and should have no problem reverting to Turf so gets the nod.
