    Verdict

    TOM HARK went very close when stepped up to a mile in a nursery at Newmarket last month. He could be the pick of the weights in this though is almost certainly more to come from Equitanus, well backed on his debut at Kempton. Marshall Jennings has more to do than when landing a maiden auction at Epsom but Zephuros has been keeping decent company since winning on his introduction at HQ, though didn't look very keen behind another Godolphin runner at Lingfield last time.
