        Verdict

        It’s a bit of a surprise to see Glassy Waters taking a significant drop in trip after a couple of placed efforts over 1m4f. It remains to be seen how the Godolphin colt fares but preference is for ASCOT WEEK, now rated 80 after placing in a handicap at Doncaster last time and expected to go close. Caravela showed promise when third at Goodwood on her debut but True Color failed to show any progress at Nottingham last time. Morning Chimes is related to winners and a newcomer to note.
