Verdict
Shake A Leg has become disappointing but Zain Farhh has shown ability in all three runs to date and holds Break Point on the form book. Dashing Panther has finished second here and at Ascot since winning at Newbury while Malabu Drive is back in a handicap after making the pace for stablemate Westover in the Grand Prix de Saint Cloud. French Invasion has only won on Polytrack so far and so has CAVERN CLUB but Marco Botti’s gelding failed to handle heavy going and a step up in trip last time and would have every chance on earlier efforts behind Fox Journey here and at Newbury. Ajyad came up short when on a hat-trick at Leicester 12 days ago and sports cheekpieces today.
