Verdict
VALDOLOBO was a very promising third to White Mocha, who won again at Newbury on Saturday, on debut at Haydock and is likely to a warm order in this. Thirsk third Ventura Royal is improving with racing but will be qualified for handicaps after this and a bigger danger may be Muzaawel. As one would expect, the Godolphin colt has a nice pedigree and is entered in the Derby, though may just need this,
