      Verdict

      A gelding operation and the application of a tongue-tie witnessed ART FANTASTIQUE (NAP) open his account at Windsor on his handicap debut. There should be more to come now and he’s preferred to Zachary. The latter placed here on his handicap bow while Birkie Boy finished closer at Chepstow earlier in the week. Line Of Fire may prove best of the rest.
