        Verdict

        NAJEEBA has been off the track since beaten a couple of lengths at Newbury in April but today’s longer trip will suit the half-sister to a 2m winner and this won’t take much winning. Desert Emperor has been competing in handicaps without success and Stockbridge Tap has undergone wind surgery and switched yards since last year. Perfect Country is a half-sister to a couple of winners and may get involved on her debut.
