      Verdict

      LARGO BAY won twice here last summer and is only a pound higher than the second of those victories. He’s been running better than form figures would suggest on Polytrack this season. Zuraig only won a seller at Leicester but Seattle King has won a couple of handicaps here this year while Aryaah was only beaten a neck over 1m2f here latest. Al Azhar arrives off the back of a third at Salisbury, where Later Darling was tailed off, but may have preferred a softer surface. D Day Odette travelled strongly for a long way at Ascot 10 days ago so can’t be ignored.
