    Verdict

    Just the four runners with Yankee George taken to get the better of Sofelia. The 30,000 guineas Richard Hannon-trained purchase, Sofelia, showed some promise on his Leicester debut, and with his stable in very good form, he can be expected to go well. Mick Channon's Trimwaki showed improvement on his second run, where he finished third to a Richard Hannon runner. However, Channon also runs Yankee George, who showed plenty of promise on his debut and looks the one to beat tonight as Sir Mark Prescott's Captivate will have to show more than she did on her debut. Overall, though, the vote stays with Yankee George.
