Verdict

SKY CAPE finished third to Alkawn at Newmarket on his debut and the latter has boosted the form by winning again. Charlie Appleby's charge is preferred to Onda District, not beaten that far despite finishing only eighth at Kempton on his introduction. Intrigue has plenty to find with the selection on latest running and the remainder will do well to get involved on what little they have shown so far.
