Verdict

Have You Had Yours looks capable of winning again off his current mark and is probably the main danger to SHINE A DIAMOND. The top weight is better than he showed at Sedgefield last time and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back in a race that won't take much winning. Gin Cobbler was clear of the remainder when second to Hotgrove Boy at Sedgefield earlier this month but Rosquero, who unseated his rider before halfway, started a shorter price that day.
