        In depth

        Verdict

        A competitive nursery to finish with and the unexposed Dharkan looks certain to run well. He is open to improvement at this trip, has a good draw in stall 1 and looks the one to beat. New Wish will find this company more to his liking after being found out in Group company last time, while Looking Down is also capable of a bold bid. Tourmalet is hard to weigh up having struggled to win a moderate event at Warwick, before running well for a long way in a Listed event at Newmarket. She has had a break since then and it could be that she was still a little on the weak side, in which case if she has strengthened up during her break, she could prove to be well handicapped.
