        Verdict

        Unless one of the newcomers is special this looks between BLYTON and Gabrial The Wire. The former has been showing very good pace and was by no means disgraced when failing to cope with the speed of the odds-on Soldier's Call at Haydock and the winner's subsequent Windsor Castle victory further enhances the form. Richard Fahey saddled the runner-up at Royal Ascot so has a good line on the form though today's representative hasn't quite looked to have the pace of the selection in his two races over 6f. The remainder with experience look up against it but Frow has plenty of pace in his pedigree and is one to keep an eye on for the future.
