VERDICT: Summer In Milan has shown bits of promise so far over hurdles and the five-year-old may have been found a solid opening to strike on his handicap bow. Motazzen doubtless has the ability to play a hand in a race of this nature and could emerge as the main danger to the selection off a sliding mark, while this step up in trip should help John Betjeman be seen to better effect and he completes the shortlist.
