        Verdict

        Shahbar has yet to find his form this year while Cajoled is expected to do better back in this handicap after failing to figure in Listed company. Melabi has a shout stepping up in trip but so does recent winner LORD KELVIN. The latter won over a mile at Beverley earlier this month giving the impression this extra distance would suit. Cote d'Azur is another likely to improve now racing over middle-distances and is preferred to both Wafi Star and Absolute Zero.
