Verdict

Course regular July Days should be thereabouts again having scored over C&D last month but ONE WAY OR ANOTHER is preferred. He's a winner without a penalty after picking up an apprentice's race at Brighton a week ago and can follow-up now back to something like his best. Light Burst has a shout on is best form and Indieslad showed a bit more last time having slipped down the weights. Kieren Fallon's presence on Salutary takes the eye and the three-year-old may have improve on his handicap debut fifth at Kempton last month.
