      Verdict

      ENNJAAZ (NAP) just failed to catch the winner over course and distance last time despite showing signs of inexperience. He’ll know more today and can open his account. Footman went close over 1m4f at Lingfield earlier and is weighted to get the better of the less-exposed Hyperloop, who steps up in trip after a second over a mile here in July. Sacred Way showed promise on last month’s debut at Thirsk and also attempts a longer trip but the remainder have shown nothing so far including Timely Arrival.
