        Verdict

        Kadar beat Waldstern, due to run in the previous race, when making a winning start at Haydock and is certainly worth a try at this level. Magna Grecia is another likely to prove at home in Pattern company having won a maiden race at Naas in good style and he’s preferred to Ballydoyle stablemates Circus Maximus and Western Australia with Donnacha O’Brien on board but PERSIAN KING gets the nod. Andre Fabre’s Kingman colt beat a previous winner by an impressive five lengths in a conditions race over a mile at Chantilly last month and a bold bid is expected. Massam has shown progressive form in handicaps and may well turn out best of the rest.
