      Verdict

      Haydock winner Attenborough has plenty of scope for further improvement while Goldoni is on the upgrade judged on his win in a Goodwood nursery, though close-up third Lord Of the Shadows is 16lb better off here and seems sure to turn the tables. Richard Hannon also saddles COUPE DE VILLE and it's the latter that gets the vote as he showed a willing attitude to land a conditions event over 7f at Newbury last month, giving every indication that he'll stay the extra here without too many problems. Tom Dascombe's filly Basantee has already won at Southwell and Haydock this year and was fourth in this grade in Germany in between. She may prove the pick of the remainder.
