      Verdict

      All four with racecourse experience step up in trip but Musselburgh winner The Gatekeeper was beaten in a conditions race at Ascot last time when well ahead of War Of Courage. Dukebox made a winning debut on the all-weather and Ryan Moore takes over the reins but there was cut in the ground when DAIRERIN scored at Ripon on his introduction and Michael Bell’s charge may prove the one to side with. Al Shibli is a half-brother to a Group 3 winner and fellow newcomer Honky Tonk Man is related to a Listed winner among others.
