      Verdict

      INHALER carries a penalty for making a winning debut at Pontefract. But he had a subsequent winner back in fourth and pedigree suggests this extra furlong will suit Karl Burke’s colt. Stablemate Distinction and Little Chance have both been well beaten and a bigger threat looks likely to come from the newcomer Toussarok. He’s a half-brother to a Group 2 winner in France with plenty of speed on his dam’s side and makes more appeal than Fayathaan and Catherine’s Girl.
