        Verdict

        SAFARHI was beaten only a neck over a similar distance to this at Windsor recently. He has plenty of scope for further progress and Alan King’s charge gets the nod. Dame Nellie has a shout on her success at Lingfield in June but Mrs Burbidge’s earlier win came in Jersey and she was well beaten at Kempton during the week. Chica Da Silva is the least exposed after placing over a mile here on her handicap debut and the Irish mare Spinning Pearl wasn’t beaten far at Dundalk in July.
