Verdict
Yuften was placed in a couple of maidens over 7f here last summer and will probably take all the beating if fully wound-up. But KINSHASA is expected to improve on a promising first run under Lemos de Souza at Windsor and might be a better bet. Luca Cumani's Pivotal colt was only six lengths behind Thursday's Dante second Arod, who'd had the benefit of previous experience. Red Velour was easily brushed aside in an ordinary maiden at Lingfield last time while Mr Greenspan and Newton's Law may do better in handicaps. Saalib's fourth at Warwick was a big improvement on his first run however.
