Verdict

Top-weight Ghostwatch looked good at York, but faces a stiff task back in trip off a higher mark, so the vote goes to FIRST ELEVEN, who was biting off more than he could chew in Group company last time, but had previously run a cracker over this trip at the Royal meeting. Midi races for the same owner as the selection and could give him most to do, while the other dangers are headed by Fairlight and Berkshire Royal.
