In depth

Verdict

BLACK ORANGE has the benefit of experience having finished third in a division of the Brocklesby at Doncaster 10 days ago. Blinkers are applied here and he can make the most of his guaranteed fitness. Crownthorpe makes some appeal on pedigree and has travelled down from North Yorkshire and his yard have started the new season strongly. Our Man In Havana is a half-brother to a 5f all-weather winner and cost €16,000, twice the purchase price of Tie Em Up Tel, the second foal of a fair placed sprinter with speed on both sides of the pedigree.
