        Verdict

        SHARGIAH (NAP) is raised a further 5lb but looks ready for the step up in class having landed a double with last month’s success at Newcastle. He’s taken to confirm earlier running at Windsor with Prendergast Hill. Solo Hunter also won at Windsor on his latest start, with a below-par Cape Banjo well beaten, while Artful Rogue has won over 1m4f but hasn’t raced since January. Proctor was progressive last year when landing a course and distance double and is not badly treated on his reappearance.
