Verdict
Oneonechop looks thoroughly exposed but probably sets the standard on his second in a handicap at Newton Abbot last month as Ramure failed to make the frame in three runs in France. SIR TAWEEL is a winning miler so it was a surprise to see him taken off his feet at Stratford. He will have learned plenty from that, however, and could be the value in a weak opener.
