      Verdict

      Discovery Island was second over a mile on the July course here last month but finished a length-and-a-half behind debutant Mascat over 7f at Sandown subsequently. Ralph Beckett’s Zoffany colt was slowly away that day so there is no reason why he shouldn’t confirm the form. Newcomer THAI POWER is by Kingman and a half-brother to several useful performers. His owner’s colours appear regularly in the winner’s enclosure and it would be no surprise to see Oisin Murphy ride the winner of this for the second year running.
