Verdict

SHEER FORCE may be able to get off the mark at the fourth attempt; Cuts Both Ways and Lethal Combination may be the best of the rest with experience. Sheer Force has a little to prove following a poor run at Goodwood but that track doesn't suit every horse and he spoiled his chance by pulling too hard in the early stages. His earlier efforts stack up well and he's given the chance to bounce back. Cuts Both Ways was well held at Folkestone on debut but he's bred to be better than that and may be able to leave the form behind whilst Lethal Combination ran on well after a slow start at Epsom and has to be feared as a result. Satwa Son was some way behind the selection at Ascot but could improve whilst Shabak Hom and, in particular, Shaayeq need to be monitored on debut but the experience of Sheer Force may win the day.
