In depth
Verdict
Justahunch showed some potential in maidens here and at Windsor but pulled too hard at Lingfield and has been gelded. Vidi Vici was placed in a Goodwood seller but has been well beaten in subsequent nurseries. Zachary has only beaten two home in his three starts but Search won a 6f maiden on soft ground here before two poor runs in handicaps. FLEMISH raced in quite strong maidens before a fair effort in a Bath nursery on ground with some give so may be good enough in a poor opener.
