Racing Post verdict
Third-partyHighland Shah lines up narrowly ahead on ratings, sharing the top mark with Lillie Margot and holding a slender edge over Suggy, so this is a genuinely competitive Class 5 contest on the Wolverhampton all-weather. The selection will need to produce a performance close to his best to see off Lillie Margot, who matches him at the top of the field, while Suggy and Constant Star are not far behind and cannot be dismissed. With confidence modest in a tight race, this verdict is offered with one cautionary note: the margins between the leading quartet are slim enough that the result could go several ways. **Highland Shah** is the selection.
Racing Post pick: Highland Shah
