        Verdict

        Sachin gets our vote here ahead of Tyzack, St Savarin and Military Two Step. Going through the field. Tyzack possesses a lot of natural ability and is a good-looking horse. However, he seems a bit lary at present. If he puts it all in, he is more than good enough to win a race of this nature, but that is what you would be banking on. It could be that gelding and a winter on his back would see him return as a potentially well-handicapped runner next season. From a German family, St Savarin is improving with each race and this step up to seven furlongs could bring about further progress. Sachin is also stepping up in trip and comes here on the back of just three runs. He is set to run a big race. Military Two Step is also stepping up in trip and the champion, Kieren Fallon, has been booked. If he gets back to the level of form that marked him down as promising earlier in the season then he too would have chances. Despite her breeding, Micklegate shaped as though this trip suited last time, although it was not a strong nursery. Could She Be Magic has bits of form and looks likely to improve at today's trip. Fadeela has been running on the all-weather and it would be a little disappointing if one or two did not have too much toe for her. Pepe made late headway over six furlongs last time and could improve with that experience behind her. She is also fitted with cheekpieces today. It's not a straightforward race but we'll side with Gerard Butler, Eddie Ahern and Sachin.
