    Verdict

    KHAFOOQ is one of the more exposed but looks to have a good opportunity in this company. A runner-up at Bath last time, Bob Cowell’s charge is weighted to beat both Sarsaparilla Kit and Devil Or Angel on these terms. Kodiak Attack has failed to threaten in a couple of starts over 6f but showed early pace on both occasions and Oisin Murphy takes over the reins today while Great Suspense is another likely to benefit for the shorter trip having faded over 6f here on his debut. The remaining pair are harder to recommend.
