    Verdict

    Eastern Sheriff was due to run at Newmarket yesterday. Dubai Souq won at Wolverhampton and Nottingham last year but could be at a disadvantage fitness wise. CELESTRAN spoiled his chance by pulling hard in a Listed race at Goodwood but the winner that day went on to finish second in the Derby so the form looks better now than it did at the time. Carlos Felix may be the danger as he should be suited by the step up in trip and Summit Reach is having a first run on Turf.
