        Verdict

        Another large turnout in which Malvern Light is the choice ahead of Gojo, Best Force, Hasayis and Aesculus. Malvern Light stayed on well at the finish behind Morntic on her Windsor debut, and hopefully will have learnt enough to score at the second time of asking. Well bred on the dam's side, she may be stepped up to a mile next season. Gojo has contested two decent maidens, and the form of the second of those at Kempton has worked out well. Best Force disappointed at Windsor after her promising debut at Goodwood, while Hasayis and Aesculus have more to give, hailing as they do from powerful southern yards. It is the usual guessing game at this time of the year, but Malvern Light, from a stable in a bit of form, is the selection.
