        Verdict

        Estidhkaar made a belated return to action at Salisbury recently and ran well for second in a conditions race. But LATHARNACH was also having his first start of the year when landing a Listed event over 7f at Redcar and last year’s runner-up in the St James’s Palace Stakes should make another bold bid despite a penalty. The remainder have a bit to find with the two principals and that includes Donncha and Kool Kompany, well behind Estidhkaar at Salisbury. C Note is unproven over the trip and it remains to be seen how the progressive handicapper Murad Khan and Leicester maiden winner Team Talk cope in this much better company.
