Verdict
Richard Hannon runs two in this but Burristo appears to have better form than Cuban Cigar, though disappointed when tried over 7f two runs ago. Progress appears to have stalled with Balavad as he was only fourth off this mark at Goodwood but another furlong should suit Moiella. DIAMOND HAZE got going too late over 6f here last time after a debut third at Redcar. He has more scope than It's A Green Thing and can make it third-time lucky today.
