      Verdict

      TAKAFOL has become very disappointing and can hardly be a confident selection but his overall form is just about the best on offer and he's given one last chance. Locommotion didn't take to the first-time visor at Ayr and finished a long way behind but his run at Kempton in March suggests he's the main threat in a weak event. With the remaining trio who have had experience looking moderate. the newcomer Joaldo, a son of Monsieur Bond, could run into a place and wouldn't need to be special to challenge the principals.
