Verdict

Executor will have benefited from his run at Brighton in the spring. Dominannie has been holding her own in slightly better company so should go well. Ballyer Rallyer and Wasseem are unexposed but softer ground would have suited Nottingham second Bit Of A Quirke. WHITKIRK (NAP) profited from a strong gallop when getting off the mark at Hamilton last week. He has a penalty to carry but looks to be on an upward curve and can pounce late again to complete the double. Weld Al Khawaneej could be the pick of the remainder.
