Verdict

A poor turnout and a tricky race to call given none have looked like winning so far. Kolo Tamam showed signs of temperament at Wolverhampton on last year’s debut and ran no sort of race while Chaparral Prince will likely improve with last month’s comeback run over today’s trip at Salisbury under is belt. FAIRLIGHT finished a modest fifth on the all-weather last time but was placed over 1m2f at Nottingham back in April and Luca Cumani’s colt gets a speculative vote on that form.
