      Verdict

      Banditry has slipped to a mark from which he should be capable of winning and is worth a market check. Shareef Star has been lightly raced and produced a career-best last time at Newcastle. There will likely be more to come and Ryan Moore keeps the partnership intact but he won’t be much of a price and HE’S AMAZING has similar credentials having returned to winning ways in a lesser contest here four weeks ago. The latter was in decent form on similar going around this time last year. Waarif would also have a squeak on his best form but this looks a stiff task for Borderforce.
