Verdict
Rio Ronaldo beat Royal Mezyan when landing last year’s renewal but was just behind Delagate This Lord when the latter went close over 6f at Windsor last month. Kasbah ran well in better company on the all-weather in February but has won just the once on Turf while Jashma remains 5lb higher than when scoring over track and trip last season. Wiley Post won at Windsor in April and found only one too good back at the same track last time but a chance is taken that the unexposed ISLAND OF LIFE improves with a tongue-tie applied and the Haggas filly gets the vote back on faster ground having returned a losing favourite on her handicap debut.
