Verdict

This looks set to go the way of the progressive Sentinel, who has yet to be extended, since stepping up in trip. Ski For Me, who has been well held off this mark, drops down a grade and is respected, but Prince Atraf is not certain to appreciate this step up in trip. Both Imtihan and Silistra are unexposed over this trip and are open to improvement.
