Verdict

SENIORITY (NAP) missed a tougher assignment at York yesterday and looks to have leading claims. The Haggas charge was a solid fourth in the valuable Golden Mile at Goodwood last time and this is easier. Zwayyan was placed in the Shergar Cup Mile at Ascot recently and also has strong claims. He’s preferred to Salateen and Love Dreams over today’s trip while Star Of Southwold ran well again behind Yatwee here a week ago and makes more appeal than Glory Awaits in this grade.
