      Verdict

      Maghfoor came up just short when failing to land the odds at Chelmsford over 1m2f on his reappearance. The Godolphin colt should be in the mix once again but BRISTOL MISSILE is preferred as he went close when beaten only a neck at Windsor on his debut and breeding suggests he’ll appreciate this extra distance. Royal Headley never threatened at Redcar on his recent introduction while Humble Hero, a 300,000gns purchase, is preferred to Striker of the newcomers.
