        Verdict

        Chatham House has yet to win but will attract some interest with Ryan Moore on board while Shawaaheq won a maiden at Beverley last month and a bold bid is expected. But CHARACTERISTIC finished clear of the rest when just missing out over today’s trip at Kempton back in April and Tom Clover’s charge could be the one to side with now handicapping for the first time. Self Assessment was placed at Wolverhampton last week and could figure having his second outing after wind surgery while Indian Sounds slides further down the weights.
