    Verdict

    This may be a Class 4 contest but most of these are usually campaigned at a lower level. There are a trio of three-year-olds facing the starter and they may well end up fighting out the finish. GREATNESS AWAITS went clear with favourite Al Azhar at Newbury having made most of the running. He kept on once headed and this sharper track looks to be in his favour. Australian Harbour is still a maiden and not certain to enjoy this step up in trip but Wynter Wildes should stay and arrives in good form. Mancini represents last year’s winning connections but The New Marwan may prove the pick of the older horses.
