    Verdict

    SABOUSI was beaten only a length by the progressive Bullace over 7f at Kempton on last month’s debut. This extra distance should suit Sir Michael Stoute’s charge and he’s preferred to Glide Down. The latter showed earlier promise at Salisbury before disappointing in soft ground at Nottingham and may do better on this surface while the newcomer Top Table is a US-bred half-sister to a Grade 1 winner on Turf and worth noting for the in-form Gosden yard.
