      Verdict

      EL BORRACHO won a higher grade contest than this under Levi Williams at Windsor last time. He looked to win a shade cosily on that occasion and is worth sticking with dropping down in class. Global Falcon made a winning start in handicaps when scoring at Leicester and is preferred to the returning Birthright, who has been gelded since last in action. Singing The Blues has been in the mix since winning off a 6lb lower mark at Bath in May while Geomatrician is a lightly-raced type handicapping for the first time and makes more appeal than Yamuna River.
