      Verdict

      KHAYAR can land this at the principal expense of Saborido and Theologist. Mark Tompkins yard seem to be in fair nick at present and he seems to have an embarassment of riches in this division. The colt took his chance well under a Darryll Holland drive at Warwick and could be open to a little more improvement. Saborido was disappointing at Yarmouth but had won back-to-back events at Salisbury and Warwick. Theologist does renew rivalries with our selection and interestingly has the visor left off this afternoon. Brandy Butter is stepped up in trip in hope rather than anticipation. Double Whammy may be much better over this trip having been handicapped off three runs over considerably shorter. The remainder have it to do on all racecourse evidence. Khayar impressed last time out and can do on this occasion.
