        Verdict

        MASHHOOR beat a subsequent winner at Nottingham with the re-opposing Noble Patron back in third. The Kingman colt is taken to defy a penalty in this with Moorbik another penalised for winning at Yarmouth last month. Mercian Hymn showed some promise at Salisbury on his debut but the Godolphin pair Long Tradition and Wild Rhythm have plenty of improvement to find. Monaajez and Tamaamm are newcomers to note.
