        Verdict

        Normal Equilibrium’s third at Doncaster came in a much better race but he now needs to follow that up. Iva Furtado’s charge is well treated on his best form but it’s a long time since he won. Ghepardo was only beaten half-a-length at Bath last month but has been raised 3lb for her troubles. ESSAKA could run blindfold around here and made a pleasing comeback when second at Windsor. He can go one better aided by Sophie Ralston’s 7lb claim.
