Verdict

A truly desperate affair in which the market will probably prove a good guide. BAHANGO gets the vote purely on the basis that he's been sent off favourite in two of his four runs this year so is probably thought capable of better. A visor may bring about some improvement in Sparkling Sapphire but Studio Star is probably the danger ahead of the maiden Azerelle.
