        Verdict

        There was little between runner-up We Could Be Heroes and Zodiac Star over a shorter trip at Salisbury while Stand Strong returned a beaten favourite at Newcastle. But ATTAJ showed a big improvement when upped to today’s trip at Newmarket and finding only one too good so he gets the vote to open his account. Quantum Cat cost €300,000 as a brother to a Grade 1 winner at Belmont while Port Erin is another newcomer to note.
