      Verdict

      STAY WELL is by Iffraaj but there is plenty of stamina on his dam’s side and he may yet live up to his name. The Derby entry was a real eye-catcher on his debut at Doncaster in the autumn, though the form hasn’t worked out as well as expected. Delightsnsurprises has already placed over this trip at Chelmsford but will require improvement and Last Light, second over an extended 7f at Beverley last year, is more interesting. Gauntlet showed some promise last season for Ballydoyle which means that this is not an easy start for Fascinating Shadow.
