Verdict

RAASEL arrives with leading claims. He won a handicap at Haydock last week but edges this at the weights and finished third in a Group 2 sprint earlier when ahead of Silky Wilkie. The latter subsequently went close in the Listed Beverley Bullet while Rogue Lightning won here before scoring at the Shergar Cup fixture at Ascot and is preferred to Fine Wine.
