      Verdict

      Ghost Serge was just caught when bidding to complete a hat-trick in this grade at Saint-Cloud a couple of weeks ago. He looks a decent juvenile but could be up against a more progressive rival here in TIGRE DU TERRE (NAP). Though easy to back, there looked to be no fluke about the latter’s easy victory here on debut and there should be plenty more to come. Being There was just beaten on debut at Newbury and then went one better at Newmarket and is another with bags of scope but Ventura Knight has already had six starts, though has won his last three including two over this trip.
