    Verdict

    Dual points winner Gunnery Officer made a winning start under Rules at Warwick but SCARFACE (NAP) recorded a morale-boosting victory at Plumpton on his reappearance and sets a very decent standard in this. Are U Wise To That is unbeaten under Rules so can’t be ignored but Ivaldi will need to improve on last month’s fourth at Newton Abbot if he is to be competitive.
