        Verdict

        FORBIDDEN LAND has been expensive to follow so far but improvement is pretty much guaranteed from Absolutely So’s full brother over this additional furlong and Ryan Moore can make the most of an inside berth. Silver Mission sill also appreciate the step up in trip and Moolhim made it third-time lucky at Chelmsford having finished third over this track and trip previously. Imperial Empire was second to Al Suhail at Yarmouth but beaten a long way while Swinley Forest was a beaten favourite in an ordinary contest at Newmarket latest. Mac Mccarthy will need to improve again to complete the hat-trick.
