      Verdict

      MASTER DIVER ran green on his debut at Wolverhampton and drops down in distance. Sir Mark Prescott’s grey is a the first foal of a 6f winner on the all-weather and will know more today. Sporting Bill hasn’t raced since finishing second at Leicester in 2017 and has been gelded subsequently. He can figure on his return and Dawn Delight may improve enough to get involved having made a modest debut at Wolverhampton recently. The remainder make less appeal with Polished Article perhaps best of them.
