      Verdict

      Gallant Boy, who showed promise for Sir Michael Stoute, before changing hands, has an excellent chance to lose his maiden tag. He is sure to be all the sharper for his run here earlier this month, after being off the track since May. Professional loser Sorbiesharry is tried in a visor for the first time, but it remains to be seen how he will react to the headgear, while stablemate Smithy has plenty to find on these terms. Newcomer Lunar Rainbow wouldn't have to be anything out of the ordinary to take a hand in this.
