        Verdict

        KHATHAK has tended to hang left in both starts so far and blinkers are applied. The Godolphin charge is penalised for an earlier success at Kempton but this looks easier than his latest task at Newcastle. Conservative placed in both outings on Turf last year and has been gelded subsequently. He had the strongest form of the remainder with experience while Sharp Frank, a half-brother to several winners, is preferred to Meleagant of the newcomers.
