        Verdict

        Though a number of his rivals have also been racing on the all-weather, WHAT ASHAM (NAP) has made the greater progress. The Pivotal colt makes his debut on Turf but should be at home on the soft ground and can complete the hat-trick with Patrick O'Donnell, who was on board for his maiden victory, claiming a valuable 7lb. Lahayeb can chase him home having shown improved form last time at Lingfield as Mike Appleby's filly is receiving almost a stone from Champagne Bob and Outback Ruler, who are both making their seasonal reappearance. Divine Law won at Haydock last July but lost his way afterwards and also has an absence to overcome, as do Liberal Angel and Star Ascending.
