        Verdict

        GUTAIFAN made a promising start when second at Goodwood on his recent debut - he can land this with normal progress. Chepstow third Husbandry should appreciate today's extra distance while Operative also ran well on his first start when runner-up over 5f here and that looks stronger form than Thaqaffa's third at Leicester. Jockey bookings suggest Peak Hill is preferred to Ochos Rios of David Evans' duo but Trikingdom is a half-brother to winning sprinters and makes most appeal of the newcomers.
