Verdict

Placed in three of five starts last season, GENO has decent claims on his return to action and gets the nod even though he shares the same official rating as Overhaugh Street, third in soft ground at Redcar in October. Irish Optimism has more recent form at Redcar when narrowly beaten on his debut but that was over 7f in testing going while Sophie P was placed over the same distance at Doncaster on her introduction and may also figure with Insurplus making most appeal of the newcomers.
