        Verdict

        A Grade 1 winner in South Africa, YORKER (NAP) returned from a two-year absence with a fine effort at York on his debut for the Haggas yard. He found only Scottish, rated 113, too good in last month’s Strensall Stakes and is the one to beat on that form. Paul Hanagan prefers Ascot winner Mustashry to Muwaary while progressive handicapper Arcanada shares the same handicap mark as Dragon Mall, placed in Listed company earlier this year. Early Morning is another useful handicapper making his debut in pattern company and is preferred of the remainder.
