      Verdict

      A wide-open handicap featuring several nice prospects who are likely to make rapid strides in their second season. Yeats Magic and Peterhof are both very interesting, despite making their debuts on Turf. The pair both made winning starts on the all-weather last year. Giantouch and Sarsted both ran well last time in decent company while Monein has won two of his three starts so far. Stoked impressed at Nottingham on his final start last year but it was heavy ground on that occasion. Ya Hade Ye Delil didn't beat much at Bath, however, and isn't really bred to excel over this trip. ISAMOL's dam won over 1m4f so he'll have no problem lasting home. An expensive yearling, he was still green when landing his maiden at Windsor last month but is learning all the time and can book a date at Royal Ascot by landing this. Wind Place And Sho, King Bolete and Who Dares Wins are others worth following this summer.
