      Verdict

      Isayalittleprayer went close when last racing over track and trip in June and finished in front of Machios and Speech Room when placed over 1m6f last time. Selecto showed no improvement for being gelded when struggling at Windsor though is still preferred to Magnificat but a chance is taken on TAWTHEEF lasting home. He’s not guaranteed to stay on breeding but has plenty of scope after a couple of outings over a mile at Bath and may well improve now handicapping.
