Verdict

BANKSMAN looked to have a bit of something in reserve (idled) when opening his account at Yarmouth 10 days ago, so he could well be capable of following up in a similar event here. Fellow 3-y-o Desert Charm is another who may have further progress in her, while it's easy to stick a line through Taskheer's latest run at Goodwood having gone off too hard and he shouldn't be taken lightly, either.
