Verdict

Question marks aplenty here and HOME RUN might be worth risking on his handicap bow. He's been beaten a very long way in all three outings to date but that's hardly surprising as the winners of those races were Darlan, Ashbrittle and Grumeti. This should tell us if he has any ability and the market could prove a useful signpost to his talent. Goat Castle's position at the head of the weights says much about the quality of the contest but this could well be his day with William Twiston-Davies taking off a valuable 7lb. He should certainly get involved whilst Bull Market cannot be discounted if putting his best foot forward. The yard's runners are often strongly supported when fancied so check him out in the market. Truckers Princess completes the shortlist.
