        Verdict

        AFJAAN goes well fresh having won a decent handicap on his seasonal debut at Haydock back in April. There should be more to come from him this year and he’s preferred to Intisaab, who went close again in Listed company over 6f last month, while Steady Pace is another usually thereabouts without winning. Richard Pankhurst is hard to predict and Aljuljalah beat lower rated horses than these in a conditions race here last time. The latter’s stablemate Certificate has struggled so far this year while Mazzini faces a tougher task than when placed in a handicap over track and trip last time.
