Verdict
Ventura Vision has run green in both starts to date and should be capable of better. He is not overburdened on his handicap debut and rates a danger to GUMDROP (NAP). Richard Fahey’s charge easily won a Chester nursery last month and improved again to finish a close third in a hot race at Doncaster nine days ago – Billy Garritty’s claim is a major plus here. Nastase hasn’t done a lot wrong so far but, like the majority of these, is stepping up in grade. Showalong and The Flying Ginger are less exposed than most and preferred to the penalised pair Wobwobwob and Denzil's Laughing.
