      Verdict

      TRIPLE ASPECT should prove hard to beat here although Ginobili wasn't disgraced behind Desert Phantom and Cavera did shape well. There was no market support for the Haggas trained son of Danetime at Sandown but he belied the lack of market confidence to display a blistering turn of foot to win as he liked. The form has taken a few knocks but his display has earned him an entry in the Mill Reef Stakes and he can cement his place in that line-up by impressing here. It looks significant that Richard Hannon has opted to claim from Ginobili and the colt was firmly put in his place by the useful Desert Phantom last time. Firmer ground will suit and there are more races to be won with him but the selection can expose his limitations here. Leftontheshelf is another that will find easier opportunities and of more interest is Cavera who made a really pleasing debut at Salisbury. There should be more to come from her as well but we expect her to have to play second fiddle at best to Triple Aspect.
