Verdict

The feature race of the afternoon, and it is difficult to rule any of these out with confidence. Not least, the dark horse in this contest is African Jazz, who is still to register a win on turf, but is unexposed and should show marked improvement from his comeback run at Newmarket last month. Litterale Ci has only had the five runs on the flat and is open to more improvement after finishing third at the Galway Festival last month. However, the selection is LAAFY who receives weight from his main rivals, is open to plenty of improvement on this first run at 1m6f, and the application of a visor should eke out that bit more effort from him.
