Verdict
JARRAH is related to three winners and is entered in next month's valuable sales race at Newmarket as well as next year's Derby. Saeed Bin Suroor's colt may well be up to landing this on his debut and is preferred to fellow newcomer El Lail. As regards those with experience, it looks a close call between Really Lovely and Sir Trevor. The former finished third at Beverley last time and may improve for today's extra distance, while Tom Dascombe's charge finished a close-up third at Chester earlier this month and should be thereabouts once again.
