    Verdict

    NAIZAGAI finished in front of a subsequent winner when runner-up at Newmarket at the start of the month. Roger Varian’s colt should go close with any further progress over this extra furlong and is preferred to Transition. The latter failed to show much improvement over 7f here last time but Sefton Warrior wasn’t beaten far when only fourth at Wolverhampton last month and looks a threat. Of the newcomers, Line Of Enquiry is related to three winners and makes more appeal than Moomba, Jazz Party and Pleasure Garden.
