        Verdict

        C Note will also be seen to better effect at this level having disappointed in a couple of Group 3 contests, but DRAGON MALL looks the one to beat on his handicap debut. His narrow second in a Listed race in May was a solid return to form after a disappointing run in the Autumn Stakes last term and there should be more to come from this lightly-raced three-year-old. Ruwaiyan has slipped to a good mark and has place claims, as does last year’s winner Windfast.
