Verdict
I'm Still The Man won over 5f at Sandown before finding the competition too hot in a Listed event at Ascot last week. NORSE GOLD was also stepped up to Listed company after winning over C&D on his debut and he fared much better when finishing a respectable sixth at Epsom behind Fulbright. Back at this level he's fancied to return to winning ways. Marboor was a disappointing favourite last time having won at Haydock on his debut though Mr Majeika got off the mark over the minimum trip at Ffos Las recently and there should be more to come from him.
