Verdict

Plenty to consider with SILKY WILKIE shading the vote having been unlucky not to defy top weight in the "Dash" at Epsom. The thriving Regional has obvious claims under a penalty, while there are some interesting 3-y-os taking their chance, notably Queen Me, who was beaten less than 3 lengths in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot.
