      Verdict

      SWASHBUCKLE (NAP) made all and was always holding runner-up Pure Fantasy when getting off the mark over track and trip 11 days ago. The pair finished well clear and Andrew Balding's charge can follow up this evening despite a 5lb weight rise. Fellow three-year-old Isharah is more exposed but it was a hot handicap he contested last time at Goodwood. Nonios makes his handicap debut and placing three times in maidens but a further step up in distance is a worry as he's by Oasis Dream. Desdichado was second off this mark at Nottingham in April but has been racing over further and stablemates Swift Cedar and Moojaned could also be found wanting.
